The Centennial Caboose will be on display for viewing as restoration efforts continue on this historic piece of rolling stock. In addition to the caboose, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad will be bringing equipment that will be available for viewing (no rides) on Saturday. Inside the museum, we will have Harvey Girl reenactors from the Railroad and Transportation Museum of El Paso, and the Deming, Truth or Consequences and Columbus museums will also have booths set up.
