While studying Jimmy Blouch's post about D&RGW traffic, we found reference to 2 cars of salt delivered to the RGS in Ridgway for forwarding to Durango many times mainly during the winter IIRC.

Any ideas on who would use this salt in the late 30's and 40's in the Durango area or were they sent out again on the D&RGW?
