## Description
### Steam Store Description
It was on May 10, 1869 at Promontory, Utah that the “Golden Spike” ceremony
made America one land, linked by rail from ocean to ocean. Facing each other
on that historic day were two locomotives, Union Pacific 4-4-0 No. 119 and
Central Pacific No. 60, the “Jupiter.”
Now, through the extraordinary craftsmanship of Smokebox, Central Pacific’s
4-4-0 Jupiter comes to life in Train Simulator!
Central Pacific No. 60, along with three sisters (“Storm,” “Whirlwind,” and
“Leviathan”) were built by the Schenectady Locomotive Works in the summer of
1868. The wood-burning locomotives were designed for dual service, with
60-inch-diameter drivers and 16 x 24-inch cylinders and a total engine weight
of 65,400 pounds. Following the historic events of May 1869, the Jupiter went
on to a long career working for the Central Pacific and its successor, the
Southern Pacific.
In the mid-1970s, the U. S. National Park Service had full-sized, operating
replicas of UP No. 119 and the Jupiter constructed, a process that included
the creation of engineering drawings of the locomotives. It is from those
plans that Smokebox has created the Train Simulator version of the famed
Jupiter. And as can be expected from the creator of the Union Pacific FEF-3
4-8-4 and AT&N 2-8-0, the Jupiter features extraordinary operating realism and
exacting detail authenticity true to the wood-burning locomotives as built in
1868.
The Central Pacific Jupiter pack includes the historic Jupiter as well as
sister locomotives Storm, Whirlwind, and Leviathan; authentic flat cars,
baggage car, various styles of Emigrant coaches, and a coach-caboose with
detailed passenger views; and a variety of new track and scenery assets
designed to allow route builders to create their own 19th century railroad
routes!
## Included Scenarios
Fittingly, given that Central Pacific’s crown-jewel accomplishment was its
crossing of California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains, the pack includes three
captivating and challenging career scenarios on the Train Simulator Donner
Pass route (available as a separate purchase).
* Storm’s on its Way
* Storming the Hill
* Storm’s Passing
Please Note: The Donner Pass: Southern Pacific Route Add-On is required, as a
