If I had a guess - and I'm going to - I'd say somewhere in new mexico? Looks pretty desolate but green. Are those crops or just grass and stuff? Looks like some kind of dam in the distance, so I'm wondering about cultivation.

Not New Mexico (or an adjoining state).
Not spacey, but definitely sciencey. |

I've been there. Idaho. Part of the Idaho National Laboratory...those two gizmos in the parking lot are prototype nuclear aircraft engines. There's a decommissioned reactor in the building. Now just an interpretive historical site.

Oh, brother, another "where art thou?" post. But I'm probably not on the right track and I don't want to derail the thread, so I'll hand the cart back to you.

It does put you in mind of that movie, of course. Which is a bonus!

I don't know. They could be anywhere...we could track them the whole way.

Well, they are on a track. At a junction switch. In the middle of a flat plain.

Is it where the Eastern lot met the Western lot when they built the trans-continental railroad?

Well, this was a vague 'where is this' round but I found the pictures so compelling I thought it might be interesting. It's the Union Pacific Railroad in 1867. This is primarily Kansas.
