Today’s question is: What was the formal name of the western Colorado electric railway that locals simply referred to as “the interurban?”
 
1. Durango Railway & Realty Company
2. Ouray & Ironton Electric Railway
3. Grand Junction & Grand Valley Railroad
4. Denver & Intermountain Railway
 
Don’t know the answer? Clue: The line once hauled tomatoes! To find the answer, check out the Colorado Railroad Museum’s latest Dining on the Rails post (Tomato Salad with French Dressing) at https://coloradorailroadmuseum.org/2026/08/28/dining-on-the-rails-august-2026-tomato-salad-with-french-dressing/.
