Snow and the Silverton Branch

December 06, 2016 06:18PM
I have seen photos of snow tunnels on the Silverton branch, indicating the snowfall in Animas River Canyon, or parts of it, are serious. It has made me curious about some elements of the branch and weather.

What months of the year did snow commonly shut down the Silverton branch?

How many miles of track were typically rendered unoperable?

What milepost did the blockage typically start and where did it end?
