Golden Spike Monument, Council Bluffs, Iowa
This is the Golden Spike Monument in Council Bluffs, Iowa. It was originally erected to promote the movie Union Pacific, but it also commemorates the ‘Golden Spike’ nailed to the track at Promontory, Utah where the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific came together to complete the Transcontinental Railroad connecting the Atlantic with the Pacific.
