Uintah Railway Tracks Sink Cutting Off Basins Mines
Snow on Baxter Pass caused 100 to 200 yards of Uintah Railway track to sink halting trains over the pass. Mail from Mack Colorado to the basin is packed across the damaged section and brought in on cars. Over 100 men at Country Bay Rector Rainbow Bandina and Big Bonanza gilsonite mines near Dragon are said to be idle due to inability to haul ore. Some ore trucks leave via Craig Colorado. A new track will likely be laid west of the grade. Repair may take 30 to 60 days delaying mine operations and contracts for gilsonite.
