No, the golden spike is not there. After the ceremony commemorating the completion of the transcontinental railway at Promontory Utah the golden spike, the laurel wood tie and several other spikes were removed, it had not ever been intended that they would be left. The golden spike was donated to the Stanford Museum by Leland Stanford in 1898.
