Show 7 THE OGDEN POST I). & R. G. W. Has H.i' Growth in Utah f I. f road V with that of any other transcontinental line. Substitution of heavy rails for 110 miles lighter is progressing, and rail, rolled of new 90 and Iron company, by the Colorado Fuel Pueblo, will be laid between Denver and Salt Lake City. The released rail will be used to replace that of lighter weight in branch lines, yard tracks and side tracks. The entire program for 1927 will therefore include the laying of approximately 300 miles of heavier tail. Pile bridges, of which only a few are left on main lines will be replaced by permanent bridges of concrete and steel The installation of additional and permanent water ways for improving drainage conditions is one of the features having special attention, and this will contribute very materialtraf-fi- c ly to lessening interruption's to 4 Ir h 110-pou- fj H i. Vi r . ,4 " J G t" In conjunction with the Federal Aid Improvements, substantial sums will be expended for the elimination of grade crossings. One of the improvements facilitating the movement of traffic will be an extension of the present double track system on the west side of Tennessee Pass. When this work is completed there will be continuous double track from the summit of Tennessee Pass to the foot of the heavy grade on the west side of the Continental Divide. Thry .no w have double track extending over the Wasatch range at Soldier Summit, a distance of .78 miles, between Helper and Provo, and the com- Ietion of double track program on ennese Pass gives us double track over all heavier grades. The new and powerful locomotives, recently purchased, permitted a material increase in the size and length of freight trains, and $350,000 has been allotted for additional yard tracks and extensions of passing tracks td 110 car capacity. The largest individual item in the budget, involving approximately is for the revision of alignment and grades. This work laid out for 1927 covers more than 100 miles of main line track and will complete this character of improvement from the Royal Gorge west to Ogden. The changes include removal of the track from close proximity to canon walla and mountain slopes, thus reducing danger from slides and consequent delays to traffic. The year 1927 will mark the inauguration of block signals on the Denver Rio Grande Western Railroad. Between 100 and 150 milea of the latest and most modern type of electric block signals will be installed between Mintnrn and Palisade, including the Canon of the Colorado River, Dotsero to Glenwood Springs. The installation of block signals in the canon of the Arkansai, between Canon City and Tennessee Pass will follow the completion of the line changes and elimination of curvature in that section planned for next year. This initial undertaking is in line with the policy of extending these signals over the entire main line as rapidly as the work can be done economically. For the operation of a locomotive good water is essential, and in certain districts where the character of the water requires, treating plants will be installed. A liberal appropriation has been made for improvements in shop facilities at various points. $1,-500,0-00, I: ;4 We Carry a Complet We Carry a Complete Line of the Famous t - Pacific Coffee Store mid 11a older that ''f.'Ve years The first assembly v itcrial will be uailalle the new JVelier county high school j " e: auditorium took place last Monday j ?' afternoon. j -r v' The program began at one uYloiW. j Two number were rendered by th-- i high school orchestra under the d- - j $$ rection of Mr. IlaroM Pettigrew.
