1919 was the year WU rebuilt the entire South Park mainline from Denver to
Buena Vista, moving their Denver-Salt Lake City thru wires from the D&RG
(via Pueblo and Cañon City route) to the South Park's line, cutting off 100 miles
of line maintenance for that important link.  I find it surprising that more is not
known and documented about this 1919 operation.  Apparently WU bought all
this rolling stock to get the the job done.  Interesting stuff.
