America’s Obscure Industrial Railroads: Deseret Western Railway & USG’s Plaster City Gypsum Railroad

Описание: In this video, C. Vision Productions visits two obscure private railroads operating in the western and southwestern United States. First, we’ll tour USG’s 26-mile narrow-gauge rail line between Plaster City, California and the company’s gypsum quarry at Split Mountain, south of Ocotillo Wells. In this segment, we’ll see a Bombardier DL-535E handling both loaded and empty gypsum shuttle trains across the Sonoran Desert. Next, we head to western Colorado and eastern Utah in search of the Deseret Western Railway (now the Deseret Power Railway). This isolated railroad operated with a fleet of GE E60C-2 electrics, hauling coal from the Deserado Mine in Colorado, to the Bonanza Power Plant in Utah. Come along with videographer Dan Hadley, as he explores two fascinating industrial operations in remote areas of the United States.
