De Baca County, NM

Coordinate verified

Sparsely occupied high-plains railroad and ranch settlement on the US 60 corridor in western De Baca County, gazetted as a populated place and emblematic of eastern New Mexico’s rail-era service towns that shrank with highway realignment and rural depopulation. A quiet field stop for plains railroad history and open-range landscape between Fort Sumner and Vaughn.
