Maker Faire Rocklin 2024
Rocklin Jubilee Train
Home: California, United States
The Rocklin Jubilee Train is the creation of the Rocklin Historical Society. It replicates the C.P Huntington train of the Central Pacific Railroad. The replica is built around a 1937 Ford tractor. The scuttle car where the public can sit was originally a self-motorized tram car from England.

Rocklin has the only remaining piece of the original Transcontinental Railroad west of Promontory Point UT. CP Huntington was the major force behind the Central Pacific RR so replicating his personal engine fit us.
