The eastbound signal at the east end of Salida stands tall still among piles of bushes slowly growing over the right of way. An industry that was most likely once served by the railroad now sits quietly in the distance. The town of Salida once found life in the railroad and in mining. Now, it is primarily a tourist town. With skiing at the Monarch Ski Resort in the winter and rafting in the Arkansas River in the summer, there is plenty to do.

At the east switch of Salida, we find an industry that looks like it has been idle for as long as the tracks that run alongside it! There are signs around the perimeter of the old structure warning people to stay out as the ground are not safe.
