Why this spot
1868-1870s railroad division point
Town laid out by the Union Pacific in 1868 on the Blacks Fork as its division headquarters, bypassing squatters at Green River, with stage service to mines and towns across Wyoming. When drought dried the Blacks Fork the railroad moved the headquarters back to Green River and abandoned Bryan.View source →
