Coca Cola of Santa Fe’s 100 Years of History

Santa Fe buy coke

This photograph celebrates the abundance of the Cerrillos coal beds, located about twenty-five miles south of Santa Fe. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad built a railroad depot in Cerrillos in , and was responsible for creating the infrastructure to harvest the precious fuel. This included establishing what would eventually become the mining town of Madrid, building the railhead hamlet of Waldo, and laying a 3-mile railroad spur to connect the two. The deposits contained veins of both bituminous soft and anthracite hard coal, and in fact are the only locations west of the Mississippi for the preferred, cleaner-burning anthracite. The soft coal, with its impurities, burned at a lower temperature and emitted voluminous, greasy smoke. While soft coal was acceptable for heating homes or powering steam engines, the higher-burning temperatures of anthracite and coke were necessary for smelting steel. It was in Waldo that the soft coal was turned into coke, by a distillation process appropriately named coking. Fifty beehive coking ovens melted out the impurities from the soft coal, leaving behind a porous rock which burned at a much higher temperature, similar to hard coal. Compared with soft coal, coke was not only more valuable as a fuel but also weighed less, and was thus easier to transport. Despite being brittle, the lightness of low-density coke made it possible to stack it into an elaborate freestanding arch display, as seen in this photograph. While the beehive-type coke ovens soon proved obsolete and Waldo disappeared into ruins, Madrid successfully mined coal for another sixty years, even supplying the fuel which powered the Manhattan Project in Los Alamos.
