The Logan Republican reported on December 18, 1917 that the name of the Ogden, Logan and Idaho Railway Company would change as January 1, 1918 to the Utah-Idaho Central Railroad Company. It is reported that freight revenue losses due to the similarity of initials between the O.L.I. and O.S.L. are a main cause of the name change. They believed that changing the name would increase freight profits for the railroad. It is also noted that many of the railroad's assets and affiliated businesses are located in both Utah and Idaho, warranting the name change.

The merger of the O.R.T. and L.R.T. sparked excitement in Cache Valley and was reported by the Logan Republican in this article on February 27, 1913. The article states that the operation of the first trains for this line was expected by the end of the year. The article also discusses the route options that were possible for the Eccles Corporation to consider in building the new interurban. At the time it seemed that they would build through Ogden Canyon and into Cache Valley by way of Huntsville, Eden and into Cache Valley.

The Logan Republican reported on January 18, 1912 an article titled "Complete History of Franchise Turn Down." This article includes a petition and the reasoning behind the rejection of a franchise to David Eccles and the Logan Rapid Transit Company for the expansion of the L.R.T. and the construction of an interurban electric line in Cache Valley. Many Logan citizens were not satisfied with Eccles' plans for expansion and wanted a greater investment in Cache County and the interurban system. Their influence, with the help of the Logan Journal, resulted in a revocation of Eccles' franchise.
