Steam & Excursion > Changes in DurangoDate: 10/07/15 16:20 Changes in Durango Author: Auburn_Ed I just drove past here the other day, I should have tried for a present-day photo from the same spot. It's all commercial builldings and freeway now. And the tracks are long gone.
Ed  Date: 10/07/15 17:29 Re: Changes in Durango Author: The_Chief_Way That's for sure. I gather this is still north of Carbon Jct?
That's a cute little train. What was the occaision? Date: 10/07/15 17:37 Re: Changes in Durango Author: callum_out 66 Kiwanis?

Ed Date: 10/09/15 17:33 Re: Changes in Duran go Author: Earlk Carbon Junction was located right where the old highway into Duran go (seen in the above shot) meets the present road. This shot is taken a ways north of Carbon Jct.. This spot should still be identifyable. The trees may have grown to the point of blocking much of the view, but the location is still intact.
Date: 10/09/15 18:20 Re: Changes in Duran go Author: BDrotarIII I'll take a guess. I think it's only about a mile north of Carbon Jct. There's a curve in the river right behind the mall that you can see from CO 3, which is in the background. So my guess is there. I don't think it's any closer than that, because the town seems to be quite far in the background.
