They are two different places. Two Guns was a tourist stop on old Route 66, and Canyon Diablo was a few miles north of there on the railrod where the bridge crosses the canyon. Canyon Diablo is sort of famous as the place where they lynched a train robber, thn dug his body back up because the guy hadn't finished his drink in the local saloon when they nabbed him and they didn't want him to be buried still thirsty (or something like that). There have been a couple of articles about Canyon Diablo in Old West and such, and Route 66 Magazine had an article about Two Guns awhile ago. Email me if you're interested in more info.
