Another thing you can see on this site is a connection with the resources that would have the twoilable to companies building the railroad. We have mocked up everything to make it as authentic as possible. If you look on the west side, you will see the cut ties. The Central Pacific had they cut all of their ties and brought them down from the mountain. The Union Pacific from the east had to hand cut their ties wherever they could find wood.
