Salt Lake Garfield and Western - An Old Film by an Old Guy

About a million years ago, I made my first ever train "video" on 16mm black and white film about the Salt Lake Garfield and Western Railroad. The SLG&W is a short line with a long history. It originally took people out to the Saltair Resort on the Great Salt Lake ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ From Utah Rails: This road was incorporated in September of 1891 as the Saltair Railway. The name being changed to Salt Lake & Los Angeles Railway in June 1892, and again changed in October 1916 to Salt Lake, Garfield & Western Railway. The name change was to avoid confusion with the Union Pacific subsidiary Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad, which itself had been renamed from San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake RR in August 1916. Starting out as a steam railroad, the ralroad was electrified in 1919 (the date most often given as August 4, 1919). Electric passenger operations ended in 1952. In its steam years, the railroad owned a total of three (3) steam locomotives, two bought new in the early days of the road, the third bought second-hand in 1906; all were of the 4-4-0 type. http://utahrails.net/utahrails/slgw.php http://utahrails.net/
