If you're seeing what is (roughly) an east-west line, what you've probably got is the original narrow-gauge main line of the Denver & Rio Grande. It was constructed in (I think) 1881, and abandoned in 1890 after the replacement standard-gauge line on the current alignment was finished.Looking for some history.
On Google Earth, CZ tracks just east of UT/CO state line. Look north of I-70 then just north of state hwy 6. It looks like the remnants of an old RR bed.
Any ideas?
