Vernal Depot Reimagined as City Office Landmark
The Uintah Railway Co built the old depot around 1903, later purchased and repurposed by Vernal City as its new office building. Once a freight depot and the Uintah Railway Co office, it linked Mack Colorado to Dragon Utah along the Book Cliffs, transporting gilsonite to southern roads. The wagon depot now serves as a symbol of growth as the city advances with a new municipal building.
