Jacob Lyman General The traffic rights were inherited via the merger with the DRGW. The DRGW had their own line from Ogden to SLC, but preferred UP's line over their own. A similar case happened in reverse from SLC to Provo, as the UP liked the DRGW line more than the UP's original route. After the UP-SP merger DRGW's Ogden-SLC route was abandoned, and UP's SLC-Provo route was sold to the UTA and is mostly abandoned. 7/24/2016 10:35:17 AM
