In about 1888, the D&RG granted trackage rights to the CRI&P between
Denver-Pueblo, CO.
This was for both freight and passenger traffic.
 
Can anyone provide more information?
Are there any written references?
Did the D&RG crew CRI&P engines over D&RG rails?
 
When did the agreement come to an end?
Presumably sements were reliquished progressively as routes became
unprofitable.
