    About 5 years ago when an 30 story apartment building was going up in downtown Denver, about 4 tons of track was unearthed when digging the foundation. I brought a release from the contractor and pics of where it was found to the yard and they accepted it. I kept some shorter sections and spikes that were sold on Craigslist.
