The Boss riding the Chief route in NM?

[DennisInGeorgia]

We're on the #4 SW Chief just N of Las Vegas NM. We'd already met #3 when we had to take a siding for a southbound. On this route? Unusual! I was just informed by 2 crew members that we'd gone in the hole for Mr Boardman's private consist, and that he had been running the route for 2 days.

I can speculate with the best, but does anyone know for sure what's

prompted this visit?

You're much more likely to see The Boss riding the North Jersey Coast Line, then the route of the Chief.........

Oh, I don't know, the Southwest Chief roughly follows the route Tom Joad took from OK to CA.
