Description

Tie Fork Rest Area was a replacement rest area designed to mimic an early 1900s era train depot to honor the town of Tucker, including a replica roundhouse and non-functional steam locomotive built by Original Creations of Carbonville, Utah. It was officially opened on August 2010 and supported financially by Carbon, Emery, Grand, and Utah counties, as well as the Manti-La Sal National Forest and Utah State Parks. Visitors would now see the interpretive displays at the rest area, which were provided by the sponsors and share the estimated annual $17,000 cost of maintenance.
