IMAGES FROM LA SALLE YARDS
La Salle was a connection point for the Cheyenne line, the western branch to Boulder and up through Frederick and the Julesburg line which connected with the Trans-Continental route. The west connection now goes up only to Ft. Collins and the Julesburg line only goes to Kersey.

Kinds looks like the end of the line was reached with some force in the past.
