EAST OGDEN GATEWAY
LINE WORK DELAYED
Union Pacific Expects to Have Track
and Tunnel Ready by
November

Ogden, Aug. 81 Unforeseen diff
culties resulting from the nature OF
the work and the inability to obtain
adequate laborers has made 1t impos
sible for the Union Pacific to com
plete the tunnel and large bridge on
its new line between East Ogden and
Gateway, Weber county by Septem
Der /. Officials in this city announc'
ed today that the two pieces OF work
would not be completed before three
weeks and it is doubtful If the stretch
of additional track can be placed in
service much before November /.
Work was started today on the dis.
tribution of ties and other materials
for the track officials announced and
the track laying and ballasting will
be started at once with a force of
nearly 100 men employed. 1t was
planned to have the track ready for
service by October /, but this will
now be impossible, owing to the de
lay on the tunnel and bridge. There
Is still hope, however, that trains
will be operated over the new high
line before the end of October.
The only tunnel on the line Is a
$50 foot stretch through a point OF
solid rock a short distance west of
the power plant in Weber canyon
After the tunnel has been pushed thru
1t will be concreted and this part o;
the work will require considerable
time. The largest bridge is fifty
foot span, located about 500 feet wesI
of the steel bridge at Devils gate

Difficulties were encountered in find
ing bedrock for the abutments OF this
bridge.
The new line is being constructed

ent grade between Ogden and Gate,
way. At some points the new track
will be more than 100 feet higher than
the present rails and at the entrance
of the canyon 1t occupies a niche high
up on the mountain wall.
When the new track is placed In
service the usual traffic rules will be
reversed, eastbound trains using the
lefthand, or new track and incoming
trains using the lower rails. This Is
due to the fact that the new track
presents gradual ascent from Ogder
to Gateway the highest point in the
canyon. Helper locomotives are now
required on almost every east bounC
Union Pacific train out OF this city.
