Alazon

Doug Harrop Photography • January 20, 1994

 

The remote location of Alazon is the eastern most point where the former Southern Pacific and Western Pacific railroads connect, about three miles west of Wells, Nevada.

 

Doug's RVASQ is rolling east on SP's Salt Lake Sub while Union Pacific's NPOAZ rolls west on the former WP Shafter Sub at Alazon. The two lines take vastly different routes east from here.

 

The SP runs east northeast across the Great Salt Lake into Ogden, while the WP is south southeast along the south shore of the Great Salt Lake into Salt Lake City, Utah.
