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.

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.
