Description

This is the first passenger timetable for the Union Pacific from Omaha to Promontory Summit, Utah, in effect the very day the line was ceremonially finished. This timetable would be accurate for only a short time. The route of the Transcontinental Railroad itself would change to move the connection point from Promontory to Ogden, Utah, and the original line over the summit would be removed in 1942.
