Union Pacific #119 steams down the tracks.
Locomotive runs will be held on a daily basis, starting the first of May. These runs will include arrivals of the Jupiter and 119 at 10:00 and 10:30 AM, steam demonstrations of both locomotives at 1:00 PM, and departures of the 119 and Jupiter at 4:00 and 4:30 PM. All times are Mountain Standard Time. Throughout the summer season, the Jupiter and 119 receive scheduled boiler washes on the first and last Tuesdays of each month. This scheduled maintenance prevents one of the locomotives from being available for public viewing throughout that day and part of the following Wednesday.*
Starting October 14, 2011, the locomotives are kept in the Engine
House for repairs and maintenance until the 1st of May 2012.
Engine House Tours are usually available at 10:00 a.m., 11:30 a.m.,
1:00 p.m., 2:30 p.m., and 3:30 p.m. Golden Spike National Historic
Site is in the Mountain Time Zone and does honor Daylight Savings.
Please come to the Visitor Center to schedule an Engine House tour.*
