The nation’s first transcontinental railroad was an epic achievement in American history, linking East to West in a new nation. In 1869, the landscape along this railroad grade looked much as it does today, but the rails, the towns, and even the lonely rail sidings are gone. The route recalls the vision and effort of those who struggled to build this line across the country.
