The original D&RG charter says 100 feet either side and on the same terms congress granted Union Pacific.

Keep in mind the railroad built the line after purchasing the Animas Canyon Toll Road from Mr. Weightman (also spelled Wightman). The papers state he went to great expense in the 1870s to obtain his right of way from various speculators. Then, he went to the trouble to actually build the toll road.
