Pomeroy Tunnel Story in Colorado Rail Project
The Atlantic and Pacific tunnel started nearly 20 years ago by Brick Pomeroy in Denver aimed to connect Denver with Leadville and Salt Lake City. It crossed Gray's Peak tributary, with a surveyed length of twelve miles and about 8000 feet drilled. The venture faltered as funding dried up. John A Rutherford later bought the tunnel rights at sheriff's sale. Completion costs are estimated near 2 million dollars and ore value is hoped to cover expenses even if a strike misses. The line would shorten the route to Salt Lake by roughly 20 miles.
