Description:
History of abandoned railroads and branch lines in Utah plus interurbans, streetcars and tramways. The book is divided into six sections, each covering an area of the state, with the lines in each county described in detail. There are dozens of lines described, with explanations of how they came into existence, their history and why they were abandoned. It's fascinating to see how many Union Pacific and Central Pacific branch lines once existed. Illustrated throughout with vintage black and white photos showing the lines in action and, often, what remains now. With several maps. An invaluable reference work for anyone interested in Utah or railroad history. 208 pages with index.
