Promontory 2
A replica of Union Pacific Engine 119 rests on the tracks at Golden Spike National Historic Park in Promontory, Utah, site of the famous driving of the Golden Spike into the tracks where the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads met in a “wedding of the rails” to create the transcontinental railroad in 1859. Still visible are the railroad beds where tracks once lay, marking one of the greatest human achievements in history.
