Why this spot
1880-1967 Denver and Rio Grande section camp
Built in 1880 as a construction camp on the Denver and Rio Grande's narrow gauge San Juan Branch, it then housed the section crew that maintained the track, with a section house, bunkhouses, coal bunker and water tower. Freight service ended in 1967 and the line became the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad.View source →
