Not to hijack this thread but...

Does anyone know of or have information about the demise of the buildings at Poncha Junction? My guess is that they didn't survive much later than the removal of the mainline over Marshall Pass but hoped someone knew more.

I have read that they wye was torn up in the Fall of '55 as the scrapper finished pulling rail over Marshall so I assume that the buildings followed shortly afterwards.

Anyone have more information?
