1902-1908 Harriman realignment map

From: "Katy Tahja" ktahja@mcn.org

We're driving west from Salt Lake in January, 2007 and would like to see some of the grades and curves of track bed that got lopped off when the 1902-1908 Harriman realignment took place in Utah and Nevada.

Is there any map that shows the original route PLUS what got eliminated? ...

You have a GREAT website. Thanks.
