Rebuilding the Santa Fe

Welcome to Rebuilding the Santa FeThis is a collaborative project by the Society, its members, and Santa Fe modelers to “rebuild” the Santa Fe in model form!  The goal of this initiative is to represent each class of Santa Fe locomotive, rolling stock, and many of its structures.  We welcome all to review the modeling work of Santa Fe fans and to recapture the feel for the diverse mix of locomotives, cars and equipment that made the Santa Fe distinctive!  Where locomotives and rolling stock underwent iterations in paint scheme, we will endeavor to show each one as modelers submit their work to us.

The photos are organized by steam locomotive wheel type, then class; diesel locomotive manufacturer class, then number series; passenger equipment by type; rolling stock by class; and structures alphabetically by location or type.  Click on the album image to view individual models.   Depending upon your computer, this may take you back to the top of the page – just scroll down again to see the images.  Once in the images, you can click on the individual image that also allows you to eliminate the caption.  You can return to album view by returning to the top of the images and clicking the “return”  arrow.  Enjoy!
