Description :
In the mid-1860s, as the Union Pacific Railroad headed westward from
Nebraska, another company, the Central Pacific, pushed eastward from
California. Their goal was to meet somewhere in between, forming a single
railway line that would bridge the continent. That historic meeting took place in
May 1869 in northern Utah, and photographer Andrew J. Russell was there to
document the historic event. His work resulted in one of the most important
photos of the 19th century and probably the most famous railroad image of all
time. The photo, often called East and West,”was viewed by a
worldwide audience and affirmed that railroads were at the cutting edge of
transportation technology. The continent was now linked.
