Union Pacific #119 steam engine replica!!!! |
| Description: |
Two authentic 4-4-0 steam engine replicas are seen at the Golden Spike National Historical Site at Promontory Summit, Utah in August 2003. Here is where two railroads, Union Pacific and Central Pacific, met on May 10, 1869 forming the first USA “Transcontinental Railroad.” This allowed the railroads across the nation to be connected. The ceremonial last spike driven was made of gold. The steam engine on the left, #60, represents Central Pacific Railroad. Engine #119 represents Union Pacific Railroad. Both locomotives operate with live reenactments (Canon T-50 35mm camera, Kodak Gold 200 print film). |
