"Train 408" is the fourth episode of a new video series. This new series, "Train Operations on Santa Fe's Raton Subdivision", highlights freight train operations over Raton Pass.

This episode highlights the journey of "Train 408", making its way eastbound across the Raton Subdivision. We first see Train 408 as it enters the yard limits of the Raton New Mexico railyard. The train is too heavy to continue over the Pass and must be Doubled or "split into two sections".

The Second Section, (or rear half) of Train 408 will be stored in Track 1201, while all of the motive power is used to take the First Section over the Pass to Trinidad Colorado.

Upon arrival in Trinidad the First Section will be stored on Track 0702, and the motive power will return to Raton for the Second Section and bring it to Trinidad.
