Re: Wright coal mine (upon further review)

Upon further review the Wright Fuel is about 2 miles from the RGS mainline so the track in the view (rail looks pretty light even for RGS 
) was more likely for mine cars that were dumping loads into a bin which is similar to Ute Junction. The Planning Dept. record indicates this is circa 1941 built so again probably not directly RR related. Dave Dye map with location indicated below.
