But we're willing to pay a bit extra for the Rail Runner, for convenience, effiency, and economics. I recall when one could drive north from Albuquerque and, in the darkness across the flats near Budagers, not be able to tell where the next rise might be. We recognize, we won't return to those days: now, a jeweled string of lights shows the road. Perhaps the Rail Runner will make our travel just a tad cleaner. Any small bit helps.
