Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project

The Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project was launched online on May 10, 2013. This was also the 144th anniversary of the Golden Spike ceremony at Promontory Summit, Utah, that linked the Central Pacific and Union Pacific Railroads. Visit this website for more information. 

This website is the product of tremendous effort from subject matter experts who have worked hard to gather important items.   Those behind the project are still gathering information to enrich the archive, so visitors to the website are encouraged to contribute. All material will eventually be put into a digital archive.

The project also seeks suggestions for corrections and additions, which can be sent to the same site.

该网站是许多业内专家辛勤努力收集重要信息的成果。在此项目的背后,仍有许多人在不断收集信息以期丰富档案库。因此,我们鼓励网站访问者帮助做出贡献。所有的资料最终都会被储存进电子档案库。

该项目仍在寻求更正意见和补充信息,如果您有任何建议,可发送至ChineseRailroadWorkers@Stanford.edu.
