Protest to ICC Over End of Narrow Gauge Rail Service
The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad seeks permission from the Interstate Commerce Commission to abandon passenger service on narrow gauge lines between Durango Colorado and Alamosa and Durango to Farmington New Mexico. The protest notes the scenic Durango to Silverton route, summer train operations, and the line’s history with refurbished Silverton facilities and past passenger service ending years ago except for occasional excursions. The protest argues economic losses from continuing service and highlights Natoma area stops and competitive factors.
