[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 832891, member: 10543"] Santa Fe Railway water tank and moon at Hackberry, Arizona in March 1997. This tank survives from the steam locomotive era. Water quality from desert wells was high in mineral content, so contributed to greater expense in water treatment and locomotive maintenance. Diesel locomotives had no need for water stops and the cost savings helped to accelerate Santa Fe's change to diesel power in the '40s and '50s.
