Off-road to Spirit Railroad, San Rafael Swell, Utah
There are a few places in the Swell to see the railroad remains. Spirit Railroad refers to a railroad line that was never completed. In 1880, the Denver and Rio Grande Railway began building a narrow-gauge rail line through the Rocky Mountains from Colorado to Utah.
SITLA employees and volunteers installed directional signs to the historic site, and constructed buck and rail fencing to create a designated parking area. They also installed a kiosk structure to hold informational and interpretive panels to educate visitors about this historic site.
The Spirit Railroad site is located approximately 35 miles east of Castle Dale on the SITLA’s 31,000-acre Cedar Mountain Block, which is managed by the agency on behalf of Utah’s public school system.
