Hi guys,
Yesterday the Summit Daily News had a story about that winter vs. a recent big storm event. In the story there's a link to a first-hand account of the 1899 winter by a guy named Elmer Peabody. I downloaded the doc and read it. It has some railroad items in it - those who are interested can find it here:

The link is to the archives of Breckenridge History. I hadn't been to their website before, but for those with the inclination they've got some good railroad pics:
