All: I seem to have another conundrum to address. At the Passenger Station, on the depot side of the main track east of the station, there was a spur. There is a picture of a train on the spur with the caption; "Gunnison Tunnel opening inspection train with President Taft" or close to this caption. Now the CRRM map I have does not show this, but it does show a double ended siding on that side of the Main but east of the spur. Any idea when this was removed and rebuilt/re-placed? Thanks, Paul.
