Greetings:
Maybe I will get this right this time, and therefore I am recalling all my previous emails relative to the subject.
Colorado Division Notice 65, dated March 3, 1985, reads in part:
"At Akron:
EFFECTIVE 12:01 a.m. Tuesday March 1, 1983, CREW LODGING AT AKRON, COLORADO WILL BE HANDLED BY 4B's MOTEL located on highway 34 east end of Akron." ( I don't know why some of the words were capitalized and others not.)
The run-through agreement for the Engineers was signed on April 3, 1985, and run-through was implemented on May 1, 1985.
I hope I got this right this time, and hopefully I have answered all questions.

Do you or any of your fellow engineers know when Akron was discontinued as an engine crew change point? Amtrak dropped Akron as a stop in April 1987, and I'm thinking that was also about the time engine crews began running through between Denver and McCook.
The crew dormitory building at Akron, as I recall, was out of use by early in the BN era, possibly earlier, in favor of a local motel.
Thanks,

Does anyone know when Akron stopped being a crew change point and when the dormitory stopped being used? Also wanting to know when Amtrak stopped picking up passengers in Akron.
Thanks,
