in the industrial development of the
Southwest has just been complebed
in New Mexico by the st. Louis, Rocky

The line is known locally as the
Rocky Mountain Route" or more fire
que1tly. perhaps as the "Swastika

Colorado & Southern, so miles south
east of Trinidad, Colorado, the st.
Louis, Rocky Mountain & Pacific vir-
tually parallels the northern bound

length of main line and branches as
now completed is LOG miles. The track
of the main line is of new 80 pound

The rolling stock includes new
Baldwin locomotives, new passenger
cars and new box LIS and gondolas.
Including 300 $4,000 pound gondolas
now under construction for delivery
in May, the road has six freight cars
to the mile7a very liberal allowance
for a new line il the West.
THE prime motive for the construc
ton of this road was the handling of
the coal output of the ST. Louis, Rocky
Mountain & Pacific company. This
company, organized in st. Louis in
1905, and financed by Fisk & Robin
son of New York, has acquired or OPP
ened nine drift coal mines in the Ra-
