Title: Rio Grande Southern Railroad track washout repair near Stoner (Colo.)
Date/circa:  1910/1949
Photographer:
Subjects: Rio Grande Southern Railroad (Colo.); ; Railroads--Colorado--Stoner--Track--Pictorial works; Stoner (Colo.)
Notes: Mile Post 087.40. Robert Herrone states, "Could be same time frame as P026129. They would NOT be repairing the track in 1952 just to scrap it. Then again they did have problems in 1948 about the same time they lost the mail contract and this could be those repairs being completed. Looking at the clothing it seems a little more modern than the 1920s." [Source: email 3/27/07.]
