I have been reviewing the 1907 Valuation Maps and found 20 of the "STATION ONE MILE" signs. This started me thinking about some of the station and place names that were not shown on the map and one place that had no name. I used the 1907 Valuation map, John Norwood's RGNG and some old RR maps to get the following. I used the mileage from my Mile-by-Mile MOW Work Session Survey.
280.7 Antonito
291.5 Lava
296.1 Big Horn Section. House
299.5 Big Horn
306.0 Sublette
310.5 Toltec
313.4 Toltec Section House
315.3 Toltec Gorge (Tunnel or Garfield Monument)
318.3 Osier
319.9 Cascade Trestle
332.2 A Station marked by two "STATION ONE MILE" signs
324.8 Los Pinos
325.5 Los Pinos Section House
330.6 Cumbres
332.2 Coxo
335.5 Cresco
338.7 Dalton (Siding at 339.0 on1907 Map)
339.9 Lobato
343.0 Broads
344.1 Chama
I know about all but two of the locations.
My questions are:
1. What was the name and purpose of the Station at 332.2? The only place I found anything about this location was on the 1907 Valuation map. It showed east and west "STATION ONE MILE" signs for this location. If it was used as a work camp for the construction of Cascade Trestle, it is a long way from the trestle.
2. Why did Broads at 343.0 need a place name? It was only a mile from Chama and inside both the Chama "STATION ONE MILE" sign (342.8) and Chama Yard Limit sign (342.9).
