Future Possiblities
While the future of the Union Station will mostly involve the museums contained therein, there still exists the possiblity of resumed passenger rail service. As recently as 2009 Amtrak was involved in feasiblity studies regarding the restoration of some of its previously discontinued routes, including the Pioneer. As part of the study, four routes for the Pioneer were considered. While two of the proposed routes would bypass Salt Lake City, all four would be routed through Ogden and, presumeably, a stop at the Union Station once again.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“I imagine, on the benches of an assembly, the most intrepid of thinkers, a brilliant mind, one of those men who, when they ascend the tribune, feel it beneath them like the tripod of the oracle, suddenly grow in stature and become colossal, surpass by a head the massive appearances that mask reality, and see clearly the future over the high, frowning wall of the present.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
