Historic 25th Street Walking Tour

We'll revisit a time where for nearly a century Historic 25th Street marked by Ogden's Union Station was considered the "Crossroads of America," with over 100 trains passing through each day! This Junction City of the FIRST EVER Transcontinental Railroad in the United States connected the world in a capacity that had never been done before. With this transformation, this once small Mormon agricultural outpost, earned a worldwide reputation as “The most sinful town in America,” with all sorts of brothels, saloons, underground tunnels and organized crime running this town.

Things have come a long way for Ogden, as it now has become a top attraction for outdoor enthusiast due to it’s jaw-dropping Olympic mountain range.
