The Wattis Dumke Railroad Exhibit depicts in miniature significant regional features including the Lucin Cutoff across the Great Salt Lake; Dale Creek Bridge, Wyoming; Corrine, Utah and of course, the famouse 25th Street and the Ogden Union Station.

As the Transcontinental railroad came through Wyoming in the late 1860's, one of the largest trestles on the west bound line was the Dale Creek Bridge. There were such high winds in the area that passengers had to get off the train and walk across and board again after the train had passed over.

The narrow rugged Weber Canyon leading to Ogden presented quite an obstacle to Union Pacific. Several tunnels and bridges across the Weber River had to be constructed.
