Show your interest in a defining Great Plains railway story with this Kansas Pacific Railway Embroidered Dad Cap Hat. Organized in 1855 and reorganized as the Union Pacific, Eastern Division in 1863, the company built a route from Kansas City toward Denver. The connection was completed in 1870, and the railway was consolidated into the Union Pacific in 1880. A distinctive pick for railway-history collectors, Kansas and Colorado enthusiasts, and admirers of the companies that shaped American rail travel.
The Kansas Pacific Railway began as the Leavenworth, Pawnee and Western Railroad, organized in 1855. No construction took place before the Civil War. In 1863, John C. Frémont and Samuel Hallett reorganized it as the Union Pacific, Eastern Division, a federally authorized railroad independent of the Union Pacific Railroad. Construction began west from Kansas City in September 1863, and service reached Lawrence in 1864 and Junction City in 1866. In March 1869, Congress renamed the company the Kansas Pacific Railway. Its route crossed Kansas through Salina and Fort Hays, then continued into Colorado. The line reached Kit Carson in March 1870; its branches met at Comanche Crossing on August 15, and trains reached Denver that month. The Kansas City-to-Denver connection completed a coast-to-coast railway network, though river crossings still interrupted some journeys. The company received government land grants along its route, and its main line helped open transportation and settlement across the central Great Plains. In 1874, Union Pacific investor Jay Gould gained effective control. In 1880, the Kansas Pacific and Denver Pacific were consolidated into the Union Pacific. The former Kansas Pacific main line remains an integral part of the Union Pacific network.
