119 is a replica of the train that traveled from Ohama, Nebraska to Utah to meet Jupiter traveling from California on the transcontinental railroad. A golden spike was hammered into the railroad at this site in Utah where the two trains met. 119 is coal powered and was heading into its night time storage area in this photo.
