1st Coast to Coast Railroad in the USA

History: 1st Coast to Coast Railroad in the USA
On this day in 1869, the first coast to coast railroad is completed in the United States. The Central Pacific and Union Pacific railroad systems were joined at Promontory Summit in Utah, using a “Golden Spike”. This made transcontinental railroad travel possible for the first time in U.S. history. The last spike is now housed in the Cantor Arts Museum at Stanford University in California.
