Replicas of Jupiter and No. 119, the two steam locomotives that met at Promontory Summit 150 years ago on May 10, stand nose-to-nose during a reenactment of the transcontinental railroad's completion ceremony. Smart-phone wielding history buffs captured the scene on Friday near the same spot photographer Andrew J. Russell snapped his famous photograph, known as The Champagne Photo, at the real event a century and a half ago.
