In 1999 the Omaha Royals changed their name to the Omaha Golden Spikes, to coincide with their joining the Pacific Coast League. The name was a reference to the Golden Spike which was driven at Promontory Summit, Utah completing the first Transcontinental Railroad whose eastern terminus was in Omaha, NE.
