Central-Pacific Jupiter

The Jupiter was assigned to the railroad's Salt Lake Division, the third and eastern most segment of the road traveling east from Sacramento,[2] operating in passenger and general goods services as well as construction trains from Toano, Nevada to Promontory Summit, and later Ogden, Utah. When Leland Stanford's train had arrived in Toano, enroute to Promontory, its engine was removed from the train and readied for another westbound train, while the Jupiter was to carry Stanford's train on the final leg of its journey to the Golden Spike Ceremony.
