Train Ride Will Become Shorter Little Valley, Utah (UPD - A train ride between San Fran cisco and Ogden, Utah, usual ly more than 700 miles, is about to become 43 miles shorter. - The short cut, a 12.6-miles earth and rock causeway across the Great, Salt Lake, will begin carrying Southern Pacific rail traffic in July. The new causeway divides the lake from Promontory Point on the east shore to Lakeside on the west and replaces a 56-year-old wooden trestle that helped link Ogden with Lucin, Utah, a 102-mile distance of which 31.5 miles went across the lake. The new trestle, built on a bed of solid rock, cost $49 million and required four years of construction work. The top of the trestle is about 18 feet above the lake and 38 feet wide. ' To conquer the quicksand like bottom of the Great Salt Lake and reach a solid base, more, than 16 million cubic yards of material was dredg ed. This created a trench 175 to 480 feet wide and 20 to 35 feet deep. Thirteen barges, some as long as a football field, were used to fill the trench with rock and gravel. The earth fill is covered by rock loosened in a series of dynamite explo sions, including a 1,069-ton blast in August, 1957, that is considered the nation's largest non-atomic explosion.
