That venerable institution, the American mixed freight and passenger train is being recreated this year between Alamosa and Monte Vista. The rich agricultural bounty of barley, wheat and potatoes flows out by rail, as it has for over a hundred years. But, now there is also passenger service on these trains to Monte Vista, a mix of freight and passengers that was the standard service to thousands of small towns across the country a generation ago.
