Railroading

Since I really believe railroading served as an important catalyst in the further growth of young Honeyville, I think it is fun to find anything from the old narrow gauge railroad, the Utah Northern Railroad.  Below is one of the handful of pictures I have found showing the one of the engines that ran that line.  I also include a picture of some spikes that I recently found that belonged to the narrow gauge track - laid in 1872 and replaced about 15 years later with broad gauge track.

This was one of the UNRR first cars, but had been transferred to another line in this photo
