A closer look
Railroad mileposts are used to reference locations along railroads by the closest quarter milepost number and railroad division name. The points are intended to improve dispatch of emergency services along mainline railroads.
The statewide roads dataset is maintained by UGRC and created from distances along Utah Railroads in combination with railroad mileposts provided by the Federal Railway Administration.
