The Jupiter weighed 65,400 pounds and had 60 inch driving wheels and cylinders measuring 16 by 24 inches. The Jupiter was a wood-burning locomotive and generated a traction force of 10,790 pounds. Currently, an exact replica of the locomotive Jupiter, is located in the Golden Spike National, at Promontory Summit, Utah. It is famous for being considered the place where you completed the first transcontinental railroad in the United States.
