“After Promontory” Exhibit
at Railroad & Heritage Museum
“After Promontory: 150 Years of Transcontinental Railroading” – June 1 – September 30th
“After Promontory takes a wide view, considering the events at Promontory to be the start of a larger phenomenon, an entire era of transcontinental railroad construction that stretched for nearly fifty years. At its core is the assertion that, collectively, the transcontinental railroads profoundly reshaped the human geography of the West, giving birth to the region we recognize today.”
The Railroad Museum is reopening on June 2, so come see the exhibit.
