The First Responder

Rawlins, Wyoming is a small town that survived after the railroad pushed west. There were several ranches in the area running sheep and beef, which were shipped back east from the Rawlins railhead. Petroleum and coal is abundant in the area, and in later years has been explored. Rawlins is located astraddle the continental divide.
