[[Promontory Summit|Promontory Summit, Utah]] is where the [[Golden Spike]] was dirven in celebration of the completion of the [[First Transcontinental Railroad]]. Two locomotives are featured in the famous photo of the event: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter_%28locomotive%29 Central Pacific #60 (Jupiter)] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Pacific_No._119 Union Pacific #119].

The replicas were completed in 1979, and began operations on May 10 of that year, 110 years after the original Golden Spike ceremony, and continue to make demonstration runs.

The drawings produced by O'Connor Engineering Laboratories are in the public domain, as they were produced with public funds. You can download a complete set of plans for both locomotives here:
