Description
THOMPSON SPRINGS UTAH PONTIAC by PRISCILLA BURGERS
A mid-50's Pontiac rests and rusts in a field in the railroad ghost town of Thompson Springs, Utah. Though Thompson Springs, Utah still has a number of current residents, it is all but a ghost town today -- not the typical type, such as the many mining camps of the American West, with crumbling shacks and rusting equipment laying all around; but rather, more like the many towns of Route 66 that died when the highway was replaced by the interstate. When I-70 was developed, the town found itself just a few miles north of the new highway and traffic through the small community dramatically decreased and businesses began to close.
