Operating replica steam locomotive Jupiter at the Promontory Point historical area. This is the site of the "Golden Spike". These locomotives are run every day, out in the morning, and back to the barn in the evening. The color scheme of the locomotives was designed by a Disney artist. Image processed with ImageMagick.

We had a very good morning at this historic spot. If you arrive early, you get to see the steam locomotives run from their sheds to the static display point near the visitor center. This was taken at Promontory Summit, location of the Golden Spike National Historical Site, Utah. More photos at: swansonphotos.com/promontory
