It began with the 1862 Pacific Railroad Act signed by President Abraham Lincoln. The California Central Pacific Railway leased in 1861 was approved to build a route in East Sacramento. At the same time, this bill allows the United Pacific Railway Company to build westward from the Missouri River. In the original law, 6,400 acres of land per rail and 48,000 dollars of government bonds per mile were accepted. That's why a wonderful game began.

Regions in which the original route was diverted and abandoned, mainly in Utah, the road grade is still clear and especially noticeable in the cut and fill a few miles east of the cape. The cape was detoured and the route was closed in 1942, but it was ignored for more than 20 years. In 1965, the site was established as a Golden Spike National Historic Site and has a National Park Service Center.
