you ain't kidding.
I have been to promontory point [where the two company's met up] on the north side of the lake, and across the causeway on the great salt lake.
I have also ridden the train a bunch across some areas, over some mountains, and though some tunnels that leave me speechless.
most of the tunnels were built with black powder as an explosive, and the dirt to build up the right of ways in most places were moved by hand.
tons and tons of dirt moved one shovel full at a time.
