A model train passes through a desert scene on a model raiload

The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe was the first railroad to order Electro-Motive Corp. FTs, and four of them are seen here leading an extra (note the white flags on the lead unit) through Starkville, Colo. The scene was on the late David Haines’ N scale AT&SF layout. Bill Pearce took the photo.
