Sunrise at Bowie, Arizona in March of 1996. Amtrak Genesis with the westbound Sunset Limited kicks up dust as it roars through Bowie at the track speed of 79mph. In the background is the old SP coaling tower at Bowie, which was removed soon after the UP merger. In the distance a speck of light is the headend of a Southern Pacific freight pulling out of the siding at Olga, Arizona.
