The Conejos River Thru Truss Bridge was originally constructed in 1886 and was installed across the Conejos River in 1917. Originally it had been Bridge 205B on the standard gauge mainline - I don't know where MP 205 would have been.
MP205 is West of Howard, most likely was over Badger Creek as that is the only drainage in that area warranting a Truss.
current Bridge at Badger Gulch
