Well, I was pontificating about the beginning...
Also at the end there was still a large (company?) traffic in new ties going to Salida to be treated in the plant there. So much in fact that my Father, not a railfan, told me in the early 1970's that the grade on Poncha Pass was from a logging line as that was what he'd seen when passing through in the late 1940's!
