<< Hi. I'm currently working on a thesis concerning a Union Pacific section

references
or information on archaeological excavations at such camps? (I've been
concentrating on RR and mining camps).

Yes, there are a few references. One excavation, in particular, I think you
will find useful, though perhaps you already have it. It is by A. Dudley
Gardner and David E. Johnson entitled "Historical Assessment of the Railroad
and Section Camp at Hampton, 48UT1520, Southwest Wyoming." This was a CRM
report done by Archaeological Services, Western Wyoming College, Rock
Springs, Wyoming in 1991.
