... that some of the proposed routes for the current effort to build a Uinta Basin Rail line are based on routes surveyed over 100 years ago? Page 4 of source number 20 in the article (part of the Environmental Impact Statement) lists that one of the shortlisted alternatives is based on a "historical survey" done by the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad. Sources 9 and 13, among others, confirm these routes were surveyed between 1902 and 1920.
