I rode the train last Saturday and noted the tank platform still standing on the East side of the pond located on the South flank of Round Hill (just a mile or two South of Poncha Pass summit on US 285) as I passed that site before and after my ride.
As long as I have traveled this route (nearly every year since 1972) there has only been the platform standing there. Does anyone know when the tank itself was dismantled, and was it re-used somewhere else?
