FRIDAY TRIVIA
This week’s question is a two-parter from Andrew Gruber.
“What Utah Governor built the first passenger rail system on the Wasatch Front, an “inter-urban” line that opened in 1908 between Salt Lake City and Ogden? What attraction did this Governor build along that line as an amusement for families?”
Send your guesses to me at [email protected]. The third reader with the correct answer will get the honor of asking next week’s question.
