Nice video! I especially liked the wigwags and the shot of the Chief screaming through the New Mexico dessert. :D

http://www.rrsignals.net/Atsf/NewMexico/3rd/3rdTour.htm, ca. 2000/1 signal by signal tour of the former AT&SF main line through New Mexico.
90 MpH passenger speed was the norm here, with ATC at all signals.
