The map shows Weston which would suggest it was late 1879, Salt Works just as a stop. At this time I thought the DRG had an agreement not to encroach with the DSP&P but certainly shows a system that would.
Reminds me of a map in the Durango Court House which from hazy memory showed all sorts of intended lines in SW Colorado, some were built some were not and some looked like somebody had draw a line with no appreciation of the geography.
For example why would you bypass Fairplay and how would you bypass Fairplay.
