's commuter rail service from Pleasant View
to Salt Lake City.
FrontRunner provides limited service to and from Pleasant View. While most trains originate or terminate in Ogden, one daily train in each direction runs through to or from Pleasant View. There are also shuttle buses and trains that provide several more frequencies for Pleasant View, all requiring a change at Ogden. The reason Pleasant View does not have as much service as Ogden and points south is that FrontRunner trains must share trackage with Union Pacific Railroad freights. Between Ogden and Salt Lake City, FrontRunner has its own dedicated trackage separate from, but parallel to, Union Pacific tracks.
