Shafter Subdivision

The Shafter Subdivision is a rail line owned and operated by the Union Pacific Railroad in the U.S. states of Nevada and Utah.

From this point east, the Shafter Subdivision is only part of the Central Corridor, proceeding towards Salt Lake City.

The highest elevation attained along the route is 5,901 feet (1,799 m) at Hogan's Tunnel,[3] under Flower Pass in the Pequop Mountains.

The line crosses from Nevada to Utah at Wendover, and proceeds due east across the Bonneville Salt Flats until reaching the Kennecott Smokestack in Garfield, where today the route ends with a junction with the Lynndyl Subdivision.

In May 1967, the Utah Department of Transportation relocated portions of the WP built track in the area to prepare for the construction of Interstate 80.
