I certainly did not know what to expect when we recently visited the Golden Spike National Historic Park in Northern Utah. I had no idea that there would be working replicas of the original railroad locomotives. As it turns out, some of Utah's most unique surprises are waiting out in the huge west desert. If you don't know, this is site of the completion of the first transcontinental railroad which was officially celebrated on May 10th, 1869. The Park includes these full-scale reprical locomotives and an interesting visitors center that has a nice museum.
