The Denver and Salt Lake Railway (D&SL) was a U.S. railroad company located in Colorado. Originally incorporated in 1902 as the Denver, Northwestern and Pacific (DN&P) Railway, it had as a goal a direct connection of Denver, Colorado, with Salt Lake City, Utah. It underwent numerous reorganizations throughout its financially troubled history and by the time the company was acquired in 1931 by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad (D&RGW or Rio Grande), it had advanced only as far as Craig, Colorado. After the acquisition the line was connected to the D&RGW main, and the eastern half of the line was used to give the D&RGW a more direct route to Denver. The portions of the railroad still in use today are known as the Moffat Tunnel Subdivision of Union Pacific Railroad's Central Corridor

dbo:abstract
  • Die Denver and Salt Lake Railway war eine Bahngesellschaft in den USA, die auf die Denver, Northwestern and Pacific Railway (DNW&P) zurückgeht, die am 18. Juli 1902 von David Moffat und anderen Geschäftsleuten aus der Region gegründet wurde. Sie sollte der Stadt Denver in Colorado eine direkte Verbindung nach Westen bringen, nachdem sie weder von der nördlich über Cheyenne verlaufenden Union Pacific Railroad (UP) noch von der südlich über Pueblo verlaufenden Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad (D&RGW) bedient wurde. Die Gesellschaft sollte von Denver nach Salt Lake City im Bundesstaat Utah eine Eisenbahn bauen. Nach dem Tode Moffats am 2. Mai 1912 kam sie unter Konkursverwaltung und wurde am 30. April 1913 als Denver and Salt Lake Railroad wieder neu gegründet. Ende 1926 wurde sie in Denver and Salt Lake Railway umbenannt. (de)

Amtrak’s California Zephyr service from Denver to Glenwood Springs follows much of the old D&SL route. (en)
  • Le Denver and Salt Lake Railway (sigle de l'AAR: D&SL) était un chemin de fer américain de classe I, en exploitation dans le Colorado. Il fut créé en 1902 par David Moffat sous le nom de Denver, Northwestern and Pacific Railway pour relier Denver, Colorado à Salt Lake City, Utah. Financièrement affaibli par le coût de la ligne à travers les Montagnes Rocheuses, il fut placé en redressement judiciaire en mai 1912 sans avoir pu atteindre son but. Il fut réorganisé sous le nom de Denver and Salt Lake Railroad en 1913, puis sous celui de Denver and Salt Lake Railway en 1926. Il finit par fusionner dans le Rio Grande en 1947. (fr)
