Wrong gender -- Limus was male.<br><br>If you know the names of the canyons on this railroad, and you stuck them one by one into Wikipedia, one will pop up as a female figure in Roman mythology who dispensed homilies and obvious truisms (e.g., "if you come to a fork in the road, take it") in return for libations of water or milk, thus was sarcastically referred to as the "goddess of drought" as she consumed water and gave nothing of value in return.<br><br>A further hint: this canyon while deep and suitably impressive, is rarely seen today by non-railroaders since there is no passenger service on this line for about the last 40 years. It can't be seen from any paved road except at a considerable distance, and most people driving whose eyes gaze over it probably don't even realize they're looking at the canyon's mouth.<br><br>S.
