Bring a landmark railroad story into a little one's everyday wardrobe. This Central Pacific Railroad Company toddler tee celebrates the line that began construction in Sacramento in 1863 and crossed Donner Summit five years later. Its history also honors the Chinese immigrant workers whose skill and labor helped carry the route through the Sierra Nevada. A thoughtful choice for family outings, railroad enthusiasts, and young explorers discovering how the tracks met at Promontory in 1869.
Incorporated in 1861, the Central Pacific Railroad was authorized by Congress in 1862 to build east from Sacramento, California, as part of the first transcontinental railroad. Construction began in Sacramento in 1863. From 1865, Chinese immigrant workers formed a growing part of the workforce; by 1868, about 12,000 were employed, and the railroad crossed Donner Summit. On May 10, 1869, its tracks met the Union Pacific at Promontory, Utah, linking the route toward Omaha with Sacramento. The company consolidated with several railroads in 1870, including the Western Pacific Railroad and the San Francisco and Oakland Railroad. It was leased to the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1885, reorganized as the Central Pacific Railway in 1899, and formally merged into Southern Pacific in 1959. Southern Pacific was acquired by Union Pacific in 1996, which came to control the original right-of-way. The Central Pacific’s history connects Sacramento and the Sierra Nevada with the construction, labor, and corporate transitions behind a landmark American rail route.
