About the event
Join us as we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the completion of the first transcontinental railroad! Our day will begin with stopping by the the Golden Spike National Historic Park visitor center where we can check out the history of the area, view trains and artifacts from the era, and watch a live re-enactment of the trains coming together and the golden spike being driven.
After the re-enactment, we will be traveling on 90 miles of the original railroad grade down to the town of Lucin. Once at Lucin we can swing by the sun tunnels if there is interest, before heading south to Wendover and on home from there.
The trail is a dirt road that any stock vehicle with 4 wheel drive should be ok on. If there is inclement weather the trail can become muddy and rutted which will increase the difficulty so keep that in mind…
