Boysen Reservoir : ウィキペディア英語版 | Boysen Reservoir
Boysen Reservoir is a reservoir formed by Boysen Dam, an earth-fill dam on the Wind River in the central part of the U.S. state of Wyoming. It is near the town of Shoshoni in Fremont County. The dam was constructed between 1947 and 1952 at the mouth of Wind River Canyon, just upstream from a previous dam that had been built by Asmus Boysen in 1908 on land he had leased from the Shoshone and Arapaho tribes. The dam and much of the reservoir are physically located on the Wind River Indian Reservation. ==Boysen Dam Railroad Tunnel==
As a result of construction of the dam a major railroad track that connected Billings, Montana with Casper, Wyoming would be flooded. A new track would have to be laid. This new track starts near the new dam where a 1 mile tunnel carries the tracks under the dam, under parts of the lake and around the edges of the reservoir.〔("Railroad Under New Lake" ) ''Popular Mechanics'', July 1949〕
