Evanston

Evanston has served as a railroad center in southwestern Wyoming since 1868, when the Union Pacific reached this part of the Bear River valley. Close to the Utah line, the city stands amid high-desert terrain, with the Uinta Mountains rising to the south. Its rail heritage remains tangible at the historic Evanston Roundhouse and Railyards, a restored Union Pacific complex reflecting the town’s working origins. Evanston also preserves its Chinese Joss House, associated with the Chinese community that formed during the railroad era.
