Railway Sells Facilities to City, New Uses Promise Payback
Stunning, Surprising Payback Opportunities — Makes Greatest Retail, Films, Meetings
Dear Reader,
Have you ever wondered what happens to facilities used by railroad companies when the company is done using them? I have, especially when there are still years of useful life left in the facility.
Well, good news. When you read this article, I will give you some insight into what Santa Fe Railway did with their facilities when they no longer had a need for them in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Or, better yet, what the city is doing with those facilities.
I think it is great that the city is actively seeking ways to use those facilities. I am not at all confident that other cities would do this. I have been to some places in the United States where facilities were allowed to just sit empty until they fell down.
Either that or the city decided to raze them because of the potential danger of having vagrants illegally use them as shelters. These facilities without being maintained will deteriorate and become unstable.
There is a high possibility that the facilities will no longer be safe to enter, exit, or inhabit. Use of them may cause injury or death.
