Otowi Bridge (NM)
Author: PVSfan

Quite a story revolves around this D&RGW Chili Line bridge. It's gone now.
The nearby highway bridge still exists but lies within reservation land.
Read the book "House at Otowi Bridge" for the full story(including a tie-in to the Manhattan Project).
Same link goes to tabs for Otowi Crossing, Chili Line, and Manhattan Project:

Fascinating information. Thanks for posting.
All the other tabs at the top of the page link to a wide range of stories from the region.

Great information.   I see the picture of #426  crossing the river is credited to the Richard Dorman collection.  The original view was captured by Denver photographer Otto Perry.    I've attached his view that I colorized with permission from the Denver Public Library.
