The New Rail Crossing the Plains in Haskell County

From 1930 edition of Sublette Monitor -

After building railroads in their mind's eyes for many years, Haskell County citizens in 1912 saw the culmination of their dreams when Santa Fe Railroad laid rails from Doge City to Elkhart.  Above is shown the construction crew crossing the plains in Haskell County.  This railroad will be extended to connect with the Santa Fe's lines at Colmer, NM, and undoubtedly will become the main transcontinental Santa Fe route.
