Potash Branch - The CutJust as the potash Branch drops down past Arches National Park it runs through a deep 100'+ cut, then tunnel before it reaches the Colorado River. It then tunnels again and runs right along the "River Road to Potash Mine. The line has been unused (giant boulders on track) for years, and there are still a number of old box/hoppers at Potash. I wonder if they will fix the line to the mine and move them out?
