Is it totally made up? Or is it a copy of a real one?

Fantasy Token. Here's one with "value 100 dollars" :

http://cprr.org/Museum/Ephemera/Buffalo_fantasy_token.html

States it is stamped at the bottom "L A Stamp", same as yours is (below "Union Pacific").

"L.A. Stamp: ALL tokens marked such are modern fantasy items. The genuine issues of the Los Angeles Rubber Stamp Company were marked "L.A. Rub. Stamp Co.", "L.A. Rub. Stp.Co." or similar."
