Having been built thirty years or more, the old union depot in Ogden hasbeoomc antiquated and the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads arc considering plans for a larger building. ' In Salt (Lake the Oregon Short Line has a depot of imposing proportions pro-portions and the Denver & Rio Grande has a similar structure. The tM-o depots do not house one-half the travelers crowded into the local building each clay. AYhen Harriman was alive he expressed surprise at the great stream of tourists and others daily passing through the union depot. That was more than a decade ago. Since then the travel has grown and still the union depot is required to serve the public. It is one of the spots in Ogden which does not show the progress of the times and it is well that at last the railroad officials have decided to displace dis-place the present depot with a modern structure which will offer travelers more conveniences. |
