Pretend Jupiter
Since the original CPRR Jupiter locomotive that was used at Promontory was scrapped in 1901 (to add to the confusion, other 19th century railroads also had locomotives named Jupiter), a number of historic locomotives have been dressed up to pretend that they are the original CPRR Jupiter, and a replica has been built for use at the Golden Spike National Historic Site.
