Green River Station, 1904

Subject: Question Can you help identify the location of this station

I am captioning a book about Franklin Motor Cars. In 1904 this car traveled from San Francisco to New York. I don't know if this station was located in Wyoming, Utah, or wherever. Unfortunately, I don't know my western rail stops. I'd really appreciate if you could identify the location of the station.

Green River, Wyoming on the Union Pacific Railroad, which the sign reports to be 186 miles from Ogden, Utah.

Yep, that's where it is. The signboard on the station gives the mileage to Ogden as 18__ and Omaha as 8___.
