Note: While "RGttP" is a great book, well worth the money and stuffed with info, the "profiles" may disapoint. They give ONLY an outline with elevation data on *some* points (glaring omissions for the Chili Line one, Barranca & Embudo.) If you're expecting info on gradient, curvature, rail wt, ballast, etc, etc - it's not there.
