Notes: Watkins Pacific Railroad series #283. From 1862 to 1869 the Central Pacific Railroad, building from the West, and the Union Pacific Railroad, building from the East, raced to complete the first transcontinental railroad. They met in Promontory, Utah and laid the last rail on May 10, 1869. Alfred A. Hart was the official photographer for the Central Pacific during construction and produced 364 stereo images, publishing them under the A.A. Hart label. In 1870 Watkins acquired the Hart negatives and published them under the series title Watkins Pacific Railroad.
