Where was Wild Wild West filmed?

Left off on purpose. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Taunton in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. Taunton is where the locomotive that plays the Wanderer was built, at the Mason Machine Works in 1856. The article names the town in the history of the engine, not as somewhere the production went; the railway exteriors were shot on the Camas Prairie Railroad in Idaho, which the atlas shows. Source. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names B&O Railroad Museum in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. The museum is where that locomotive lives and is brought out for its Steam Days. The article names it as the home of the engine, not as a place the film was shot. Source. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Strasburg Rail Road in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. Before production the engine was sent to the steam shops at the Strasburg Rail Road for restoration and repainting. A prop being repaired is not a shoot. Source.

Places per Wikipedia's article

The article names 11 places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it was shot there

2 places whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

• Cerro Pelon Ranch United States

  “Originally known as the Cook Ranch, in 1999 the property came to be referred to as Cerro Pelon, literally meaning "Bald Hill", "after a fire started by carelessly used pyrotechnics during the filming of Wild Wild West", which "raged out of control in the New Mexico wind".” Wikipedia

• Old Tucson Studios United States

  “The Reno locomotive was cosmetically restored before the filming of Wild Wild West, in which it was featured as Union Pacific 119 in the scene at the driving of the final spike of the first transcontinental railroad, but was subsequently used in an explosion in the scene and is in need of additional restoration.” Wikipedia

Recorded only at country level

Wikidata also records this film as shot in Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable (a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote), so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
