I wonder what crisis will be encountered through there while they crawl northward along C&S's old corkscrew due to the current of traffic? (At least they now avoid downtown Trinidad, CO)....roadmasters and trainmasters with heartburn? How many SAPOHS (Stop And Procede On Hand Signals) I wonder are in their train orders?
