Three photographers documented the laying of the last rail at Promontory, Utah, on May 10, 1869. They included Andrew J. Russell, Alfred A. Hart, and Charles R. Savage. Some confusion has persisted as to who took what photograph. The existing images taken by Savage of this historic event are identified and described.
