Aboard the Southwest Chief near Glorieta Pass, c. 1981:

What is wrong with this pic? How was I able to take this pic obviously NOT through a window? Answer: I was standing in an open doorway. The train was standing still and the Conductor was down on the ground so the door was open. Why were we stopped? Sunkinks. It was a hot summer day and out ahead the track had been forced out of alignment by thermal expansion. We waited 'til someone inspected the spot and we then proceeded under a slow order.
