Mexico: by train to bandit country
Lucy Gillmore bought a ticket back in time, to the lawless land of hard stares, coyotes, bullet holes and revolution
Sunday 17 September 2000
There are only two things to do in Chihuahua; buy cowboy boots and wait for the train. If you're looking for the world's most pampered pooch, you're in for a disappointment. They are no chihuahuas left in Chihuahua. This is cowboy country after all, a harsh, bleached land of crusted mountains baked beneath a hard sapphire sky. It's also the end of the line for the Copper Canyon Railway, one of the most spectacular rail journeys in the world, and the reason why most tourists venture so far into Mexico's barren north.
There are only two things to do in Chihuahua; buy cowboy boots and wait for the train. If you're looking for the world's most pampered pooch, you're in for a disappointment. They are no chihuahuas left in Chihuahua. This is cowboy country after all, a harsh, bleached land of crusted mountains baked beneath a hard sapphire sky. It's also the end of the line for the Copper Canyon Railway, one of the most spectacular rail journeys in the world, and the reason why most tourists venture so far into Mexico's barren north.
The railway was the dream of the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient Railway Company which, at the beginning of the 20th century, planned to forge a new route from the American Midwest to the Pacific. It failed. Laying the tracks jauntily across the plains, the company hit the mountains and gave up.
In 1953 the Mexicans tried again, and over eight years blasted 73 tunnels through the mountains and built 28 bridges across perilous ravines - a feat of engineering and, one suspects, pure bloodymindedness. The line from Los Mochis on the steamy coast to the high desert plains of Chihuahua careers precariously across the Sierra Madre mountains over flimsy bridges, grimly clinging to the rock face.
I was heading east to west, starting in Chihuahua, a blowzy town of low-slung buildings and wide, dusty streets. Prowling them were Chevrolets and juggernauts and stocky, redneck four-wheel-drives with blacked-out windows and names like Ram Charger or Ram Basher.
The area has always been rough and untamed; a kind of American Wild West meets Mexican machismo. It was here and in Mexico's far south that revolution was hatched in 1910. Pancho Villa, a one-time bandit, cattle rustler and would-be Hollywood hero, rose up against the dictator, Diaz. The story goes that he invited a film crew along when he rode into battle.
The town still has a raw edge and doesn't suffer tourists gladly. Soldiers with machine guns stand guard as visitors wander disconsolately round the Museum of the Revolution and past Pancho Villa's bullet-ridden car (he was assassinated in 1923). They look as though they'd rather be doing something far more bloodthirsty. Snapshots of Villa's widow and the Hollywood actor Anthony Quinn hang oddly beside movie stills of Mexico's moustachioed revolutionaries galloping in sepia across the desert.
As I sat on a bench in the Plaza de Armas, beside an old man chewing tobacco and spitting green slime, I counted the minutes ticking by, mulling over whether the emerald green mock-lizard skin or mauve leather boots with silver toe caps would go down better in Battersea.
The 6am departure the next day left exactly on time - so much for lackadaisical Latins. The journey takes 13-and-a-half hours on a good day, and with only one train a day at the moment in each direction, you make sure you're on it. Jumping off along the way you can explore the canyon on foot, horseback or by Jeep and, as the Barranca del Cobre dwarfs the Grand Canyon, that's probably why you're there. The Americans, it seems, don't have the monopoly on big.
On board, things were on a more manageable scale. The carriages had thick carpets and Venetian blinds, not to mention his-and-hers spotless loos. The train was reassuringly more Amtrak than Old Patagonian Express. CHP's (pronounced Shepay's) reclining seats were sumptuously upholstered. My fellow passengers were mostly elderly Americans and backpackers on their way to Baja's beaches.
"You see Wiley, you see Wiley?" Bob, an American tour guide, had spotted a coyote and almost jumped through the roof. There were kestrels on electricity pylons, cowboys on rearing horses and dead cattle beside the tracks - it was if they had all been painted on a flat beige canvas. This was Bob's own private viewing; a real-life Western through the polished glass. We rolled through a parched landscape dotted with cacti and thorn trees, cocooned in our luxurious pod.
The first jumping off point was Creel, a one-horse town five hours down the line. Grabbing my backpack, I wandered along the road towards my hotel. Dust blew in clouds down the main street, which was lined with old pick-up trucks and shops selling little Indian dolls and baskets. The Tarahumara Indians in bright, flouncy skirts huddled in groups, and men in stetsons galloped along the railway tracks.
Creel was originally a logging town and still feels a bit like a forgotten trading post, but it's more attuned to the tourist industry than Chihuahua. I took a Jeep tour of the nearby Indian reservation, bumping along a dirt track. The landscape looked as though it had been left out in the sun for too long. Pale rocks and washed-out grass blended into an insipid sky. Further on, things became more animated as we passed the large rock formations that made up the Valley of the Mushrooms and Valley of the Frogs.
The Jesuits arrived here at the beginning of the 17th century to convert the native Tarahumara, but despite the continued presence of the mission and their tenacity after sporadic rebellions, Catholicism has retained only a tenuous hold. The original mission church stands out lonely against the plain, a symbol of ultimate impotence.
Moving on the next day, the train was not just on time, it was 15 minutes early. Alex, a backpacking barmaid from Alaska, hung her socks over the back of the seat to dry complaining, "I've been here for days. I keep missing the train."
From Creel it's just an hour to Divisadero and "the view". Everyone piled off to stagger down the steps to the viewpoint. We passed the Tarahumara as they wove baskets for the tourists. There were stalls of steaming hot food. Then our chattering stopped. We hovered on the brink of the chasm stretching across a seemingly unending expanse. The magnitude of it silenced us.
A further five minutes down the line was Posada Barrancas Mirador where I was staying. All low terracotta walls and chunky wood, the rooms have balconies that hang over the edge of the canyon. Dumping my bag on the bed beside the traditional kiva fireplace, I stepped outside. The air was like a shot of frozen vodka. Hummingbirds hovered nearby, while across the canyon the sun bounced off sheer rock, and pack-laden donkeys zigzagged along narrow paths. Finding a large, flat rock in the sun, I spent the afternoon staring into space. This was Cormac McCarthy land, and tomorrow I was going horse riding ...
My gnarled guide Roberto had a face like cracked leather and wore the ubiquitous stetson and spurs. My horse was a cross between a mule and a mountain goat. As we clattered off down the track, the sun beat down and I swotted flies from my sweaty face. We slithered around the rim of the canyon. The bridles were frayed rope, and the saddle rubbed my thighs raw. As we dismounted and scrabbled to the edge of a ravine, scratched by branches, I was a pioneering rancher scouting for trouble rather than a lily-livered tourist who had become used to lounging in a plush hotel and riding a train with air-con.
Stiff and bow-legged and smelling vaguely of mule, I collapsed on to the rickety, wooden platform to find the afternoon train finally starting to live up to its tardy reputation. "So how're y'all liking the States, honey?" I was cornered by eight bored, big-bellied Texans in mirrored sunglasses. A couple of Germans with pudding-bowl haircuts consulted their timetable and started to look agitated. Out of the corner of my eye I caught sight of an ancient silent movie star, still sprightly in a straw hat with a tiny doll's face, smudged tangerine lipstick and feet like a geisha's in minuscule black pumps. This exquisite woman, the reincarnation of Lilian Gish, sat calm and unflustered on the shambles of the Mexican platform surrounded by large, old-fashioned trunks.
The sun was searing a hole in the sky. The minutes turned to suffocating hours. The Texans and Germans were puce with apoplexy. The next leg of the route was supposed to be the most breathtaking. If we lost the light we'd miss the view. But this wasn't play-acting. We were stranded on a dusty platform, and the real Mexico had finally reared its head and hijacked our train.

Harvard Crimson Editorial Denounces Freedom and Truth in Favor of Academic Justice
By reputation, Harvard University is the USA's top university, the foremost producer of personnel for the ruling establishment. It falls to Harvard to set the parameters of university research at the highest level. That is why this piece in the Harvard Crimson is one of the most alarming editorials you are likely to read:
In July 1971, Harvard psychology professor Richard J. Herrnstein penned an article for Atlantic Monthly titled "I.Q." in which he endorsed the theories of UC Berkeley psychologist Arthur Jensen, who had claimed that intelligence is almost entirely hereditary and varies by race. Herrnstein further argued that because intelligence was hereditary, social programs intended to establish a more egalitarian society were futile–he wrote that "social standing [is] based to some extent on inherited differences among people."
Herrnstein may be best known as coauthor with Charles Murray of The Bell Curve, which establishes significant racial differences in intelligence seven ways to Sunday. No serious person has been able to dispute these differences at a factual level – only at an ideological level. But as darkness falls on our culture, ideology is beginning to trump fact.
When he returned to campus for fall semester 1971, Herrnstein was met by angry student activists. Harvard-Radcliffe Students for a Democratic Society protested his introductory psychology class with a bullhorn and leaflets. They tied up Herrnstein's lectures with pointed questions about scientific racism. SDS even called for Harvard to fire Herrnstein, along with another of his colleagues, sociologist Christopher Jencks.
SDS was a revolutionary Marxist organization that gave birth to Obama mentor Bill Ayers's terrorist Weather Underground. But it isn't only communist revolutionaries who oppose academic freedom these days.
Did SDS activists at Harvard infringe on Herrnstein's academic freedom? The answer might be that yes, they did–but that's not the most important question to ask. Student and faculty obsession with the doctrine of "academic freedom" often seems to bump against something I think much more important: academic justice.
Economic justice means confiscating wealth from those who produce it for redistribution to those who don't. Social justice means granting special privileges to groups favored by liberals at the expense of those not favored. Climate justice means massive wealth transfers from advanced countries to backward hellholes in the name of discredited global warming theory. Whatever academic justice means, it isn't good.
If our university community opposes racism, sexism, and heterosexism, why should we put up with research that counters our goals simply in the name of "academic freedom"?
Instead, I would like to propose a more rigorous standard: one of "academic justice." When an academic community observes research promoting or justifying oppression, it should ensure that this research does not continue.
That is, any research – scientific or otherwise – that does not support left-wing ideology must be shut down.
We were wasting our time, aiming all those $millions worth of nuclear missiles at the Soviet Union. Totalitarianism won't be imposed by foreign armies, but from within.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Bill aims to protect shippers
Federal legislation intends to ensure fair treatment from railways
The federal government tabled long-awaited legislation on Tuesday designed to ensure all shippers are treated fairly by Canada's largest railways.
The Fair Rail Freight Service Act, which was announced in Winnipeg by Transport Minister Denis Lebel and Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz, was hailed by spokesmen for farmers, grain handlers, oil and gas companies, and pulse-crop growers as an important step forward in levelling the playing field for shippers who have long complained of poor service from the country's major railways -- Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Railway.
"It is definitely a step in the right direction," said Jean-Marc Ruest, vice-president of corporate affairs and general counsel for Canada's largest privately owned grain company -- Winnipeg-based Richardson International.
"It's nice to know there are tools available now to bring railroads to the table and to ensured everyone's interests are respected and that it's a balanced approach," added Keystone Agricultural Producers president Doug Chorney.
The government launched a review in 2008 to address complaints by shippers about Canada's rail freight service. A preliminary report found overall rail freight service was inadequate, in part because of a power imbalance between the country's two large railways and hundreds of shippers. If a railway didn't want to deal with a shipper, there was nothing forcing it to do so.
The new legislation attempts to address that imbalance by guaranteeing shippers the right to negotiate a service agreement with a railway. If an agreement can't be reached within 30 days, they can ask the Canadian Transport Agency to appoint an arbitrator who will impose a binding, non-appealable agreement on the two parties.
The arbitration process will have a 45-day timeline but can be extended for up to 20 days. Railways can face penalties of up to $100,000 for each violation of an arbitrated agreement, as well as other existing remedies provided for in the act.
The proposed legislation is now be reviewed by a parliamentary committee and must be approved by the House of Commons and Senate before becoming law. It's not known how long that process might take.
Lebel told reporters the legislation will enhance the effectiveness, efficiency and reliability of Canada's rail system.
"The railway-shipper relationship is vital to Canada's economy as a whole because when shippers can move more volume this means more exports, more revenue and, for sure, more Canadian jobs," he added.
While shipper groups welcomed the government's intervention, Canadian National was quick to condemn it as an unnecessary intrusion that puts the country's economic growth at risk.
"Such an approach would stifle innovation, chill the positive service momentum that's taken hold and result in potentially unintended consequences for the rail industry and the customers we serve," said CN president and chief executive Claude Mongeau.
Mongeau said there is no evidence of systematic rail service performance problems in Canada that warrants Ottawa's intervention.
"The objective fact is that Canada has a world-class rail system, one known internationally for efficiency and reliability -- a key asset for a trading nation like Canada -- and that reflects a well-functioning market for rail services," he said.
Canadian Pacific said the best way to improve the country's "world-class rail supply chain" is through commercial undertakings, better traffic forecasting and more certainty on traffic volumes.
CP Rail CEO Hunter Harrison said the railway has been implementing earlier recommendations, including a service agreement template and a commercial dispute resolution process.
"As such, we are confident strong commercial relationships will continue to emerge with little need for the processes described in the legislation," he stated.
Lebel agreed rail service has improved since the government review began.
He said the new provisions are designed to build upon that success and help solidify the gains that already have been made.

Since writing my first piece, I have [...]
Hi Renee,
I'm super interested in recycling and especially Styrofoam usage.
I'm writing to ask your permission to incorporate your most recent "Ask Renee" in next week's newsletter and bulletin at our church.
We are a "green" church and I would love to remind our church family about carryout Styrofoam [...]
May I place my empty prescription bottles in my curbside recycling bin? If not, what shall I do with them?
Thanks so much for your help with this,
Hiya Nonie!
I'm gonna use your question to share a lot of info here. Bear with me.
Yes, you may [...]

Some of those Beats laptops even have free Solos. I remember a friend of mine selling the free Solo and it paid for 2/3rds of the laptop price.

Yeah, they were HP.post #8975 of 119575/26/13 at 7:33amwhat you should do is get onto every laptop, and fiddle with the sound settings until it's audiophile worthy
post #8976 of 119575/26/13 at 9:32amThat beats software is pretty terrible. Took me a while to find a somewhat-workaround but now I have an E07k so it doesn't really matter ^^.
As for headphones.... I saw some Crossfade LP's a couple weeks ago.

post #8982 of 119575/26/13 at 11:25pmI have Beats Audio and it is just generic bull c**p. It has way to much bass, the volume swings up and down, and when you close it the software automatically reduces a ton of bass resulting in a tin like sound. I just unloaded it and the computer renewed it with Beats-free audio.
As for headphones; spotted a pair of Shure SRH 840's (I think). I played in a gig and the sound manager/engineer was using them.

In my school there are tons of Beats,and they think they're the best headphones.... Once a friend of mine's listened to my old K701,he said "My Solo HD is better"..... ¬¬
I saw a guy using a PortaPro once,here in Brazil we don't see many headphones because of their prices (here Solo HDs are almost $600,ppl who have Beats bought them in the US)

HDJ-500s have become very popular in Mexico for some reason and I just got a pair out of curosity. The first time I took them out of the box and tried them on I saw a girl and a guy wearing them lol. I'll write a review on these but I'm glad they are popular; pronounced V shape frequency response with recessed and somewhat grainy mids, non-fatiging highs, and wonderful tight and punchy bass. You could do A LOT worse for the price. But I'm not a fan of the super plasticky feel, although they are well padded and are very comfortable (and manage to look great as well!).

Fender ALL ORIGINAL 1968 Stratocaster Neck!
Up for grabs we have an all original 1968 Fender Stratocaster Neck with close to no issues at all. All original finish, original decal, original tuner ferrules, no extra holes drilled on the headstock. Very straight neck and the truss rod adjustment is good and smooth. No cosmetic issues at all. Had a pro refret job done quite recently with the original size frets. The only other issue would be the extra holes in the neck pocket that have already been plugged up. A very very comfortable C shaped profile neck. Well worn in. This one's a true player. Date stamp says all. I had the neck fixed on previously on the cleaner sunburst strat body you see for sale in my auctions and the tone was simply killer! This one is PURE Hendrix, Blackmore, Gilmour, Beck and Malmsteen screaming out of it. Look at the pictures and see for yourselves!

*KONTRONIK is mourning*
*KONTRONIK is mourning*
On Friday the 19th April, my beloved husband, brilliant engineer and esteemed CEO died in a tragic car accident. His loss will create a great void that will be a challenge for us all. With great pride and perseverance, Harald and I worked together to build KONTRONIK into a successful company. We have always believed in our KONTRONIK family and I am convinced they will all work together to carry on Harlads vision. The funeral service will be on Friday, April 26th in our Catholic Church (Hadolfinger Straße, 72108 Rottenburg-Hailfingen). In tiefer Trauer aus Rottenburg-Hailfingen, with great teariness Sabine Konrath Telefon +49 7457 94350 · Fax +49 7457 943590 firstname.lastname@example.com <mailto:email@example.com> |
Sorry to hear of the loss--Harald was one of the pioneers in electric flight systems. I always enjoyed our meetings we had at many F5B/D World Champs over the years.
According to my friend he and his friend died when the Cobra he had just got the day before turned over near his home. http://www.tagblatt.de/Home/nachrich...id,211559.html Steve Neu NeuMotors |
Although we only had the privilege of meeting Harald once, his professionalism and sportsmanship will always be remembered. He was truly a talented engineer, but from what we saw from him, he was a better man. His loss will be felt by many around the world. Our most sincere condolences from our family to yours. Sincerely, Arch Adamisin, F5D Director, 2000 Worlds, San Diego. |

Sad news indeed.
My condolences. |
My condolences as well. Bought my first brushless from Kontronik, from Harald himself actually, on the Dortmund fair quite some time ago.
