Nice shots Greg. That is the east throat of the Durango yards and the crossing is the old 5th avenue crossing that went to Santa Rita and then turned into La Posta Road, which runs on the west side of the river all the way to Bondad. This location is now a bike trail, come off of 5th Avenue and turning east on the RR ROW (1/10th of a mile) to Gateway Drive (the name may have changed by now), which is the intersection to the Durango Visitors Center. The building to the right is the old Conoco bulk plant. Some of the stone foundation is still there. The trailer park is now condos. Times have changed...
