What would be the most common rail weight in use for the Colorado & Southern in the Platte Canyon from Waterton to Kenosha Pass in the 1930's time period? I know there was a lot of old, light rail, stub switches and harp switchstands in use until the end, especially on sidings, but I was wondering specifically about the mainline trackage.

I am considering handlaying Code 83 for the main and Code 70 for the sidings in On3.

Thanks in advance,
Norm
