Union Pacific's Yellowstone Park Railroad Company built this line during 1905, crossing the Continental Divide at 6934'. Union Pacific's passenger service to Yellowstone National Park ended in 1960, while the line continued operating in freight service until it was abandoned during 1981. America's railroads built 31 crossings over the Divide, of which 10 other crossings remain in use.
