There are about 25 round trips on weekdays between Ogden and Provo (through Salt Lake City). FrontRunner closely parallels Interstate 15 for most of the route.
Most of the route used by FrontRunner is single-tracked (though it runs parallel to UP tracks), with double-track at stations and several other points along the route to allow trains to pass each other. UTA-owned track parallels UP track until Ogden, where, until Aug(date of last train), when service to Pleasant View was "Suspended Indefinitely", Union Pacific and Utah Transit Authority share the final 6 mi (9.7 km) of track to Pleasant View. The route uses a portion of the right-of-way of the historic Utah Central Railroad, built in 1869 to connect the First transcontinental railroad with Salt Lake City and acquired by the Union Pacific Railroad in 1878. Before the Pleasant View station was closed, the total length was 88 miles (142 km). In 2022, the system had a ridership of 3,168,300, or about 12,100 per weekday as of the fourth quarter of 2022.įrontRunner runs south from Ogden to Provo with a total length of 81.2 miles (130.7 km). FrontRunner ( reporting mark UTAX) is a commuter rail train operated by the Utah Transit Authority that operates along the Wasatch Front in north-central Utah with service from the Ogden Intermodal Transit Center in central Weber County through Davis County, Salt Lake City, and Salt Lake County to Provo Central station in central Utah County.
