Today's Trains Magazine News Wire carries this news item:

Quote

The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad will receive a federal grant for more than $1.9 miilion to replace a bridge over the Animas River as part of the latest group of Department of Transportation Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) grants announced by local politicians. The website Colorado Politics reports the grant request says the current 242-foot bridge over the Animas is “overstressed and in need of replacement;” a new bridge will be built adjacent to the current structure.

Anyone have more information?
