Winslow, Railroad city in Arizona, US
Located in Navajo County, Winslow sits at the intersection of Interstate 40 and Arizona State Route 87, spanning across desert terrain at 4,850 feet elevation.
The city emerged as a significant railroad hub in 1882 when the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad established operations, becoming essential for steam locomotive water and fuel stops.
