Day 2 Alaska Or Bust

Left Brigham City, Utah, and headed to Promontory Point historical site.  Railroad buffs probably know the history but we didn't.  Luck was on our side as we arrived - we could see the steam locomotive ,Jupiter, leaving the engine house en route to the visitor center.  We ran thru the station to catch the program and get a close up of the engine.  Then as luck would have it, engine #119 left the engine house and proceeded to the visitor center and stopped nose to nose with Jupiter. The west met the east at that point.

Here is a picture of 119

I will read "Nothing Like It In The World" by Stephen Ambrose.  Then I will know the whole story.

We had a great time and then headed to Boise and then McCall, Idaho
