Commercial basis of rivalry?

Someone (with more knowledge than I) should inform the reader why the commercial rivalry between these two railroad companies took the form it did. Why did they not form a joint venture to run the spur up the Royal Gorge? Was it a winner-takes-all situation, and if so, why? Was there something other than commercial logic at play, such as manly pride? --Matt Whyndham (talk) 15:23, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A map showing the location (and elevations) would be helpful.Kam2064 (talk) 21:40, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
