Fort Steele, also known as Fort Fred Steele, was established to protect the newly built Union Pacific Railroad from attacks by Native Americans during construction of the transcontinental railroad in the United States. The fort was built in 1868 where the railroad crossed the North Platte River in Carbon County, Wyoming. Work on the fort was carried out by military and civilian labor. Fort Steele was one of three forts built on the line. Fort Sanders (originally Fort John Buford) near Laramie and Fort D.A. Russell at Cheyenne were the other railroad forts. Fort Steele was named for the recently deceased General Frederick Steele.

  • Fort Steele, officiellt Fort Fred Steele State Historic Site, är ett historiskt fort i Carbon County i Wyoming, beläget vid den punkt där Union Pacifics järnväg korsar North Platte River, öster om den nuvarande staden Sinclair. Fortet etablerades som ett av tre järnvägsfort 1868 för att skydda bygget av den transamerikanska järnvägen, som då nått södra Wyomingterritoriet. De två övriga var (ursprungligen Fort John Buford) nära Laramie och i Cheyenne. Fort Steele namngavs efter nordstatsgeneralen Frederick Steele (1819 – 1868). (sv)
