Lake Cut-Off Survey Advances From Ogden
Southern Pacific surveyors led by Chief Engineer D D Griffiths moved from Ogden to a midpoint between the Ogden River and Great Salt Lake to survey the Lucia to Ogden cut-off. The plan ties to the old SP line near the Ogden River and heads south past Slaterville and Little Mountains to the lake, with a bridge across the lake projected as nineteen and a half miles long. Estimated cost approaches six million dollars but is justified by a shorter route and easier grades.
