C&W Xing         
The former Colorado & Wyoming grade crossing at SH12 in Weston, Colorado, with the Sangre de Cristo mountains as the backdrop. This line originated in Trinidad and reached deep into the coal country of southcentral Colorado. I beleive full abandonment came in the 1980's.

Marty Pfohl General Thanks Wendy! -There was so much to see at every bend of the highway, the drive took quite longer than i expected..I have to plan a return trip there to seek out more C&W remanents before they're all gone. 12/18/2013 8:06:09 PM
