Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Union Pacific Railroad's 4014 Big Boy is the largest operational steam locomotive in the world. It was restored by the railroad in 2019 in celebration of the 150th anniversary of the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad. In this video, we will watch the Big Boy in several different scenes from two of its excursion trips in 2019. This is a non narrated video, so the only noise you will hear is the sound of the locomotive as it thunders by. Some of these are scenes that previously appeared in videos on the channel while others have never been posted anywhere until now

By now all fans must know about the water injector probkem that caused 4014 to run very low on water in Louisiana. The only co power was the diesel that had to push it to where it could refill it's 75, 000 gallon water tank. 4014 is a piece of history and it is best to not take risks. If it had been allowed to run dry it would have exploded. They kept the boiler going the whole time, throttled back I live in the NE and would have to travel to see it. Well worth the trip.

Yes, the steam engines are awesome, but you have to realize that it's not everyday that people get to see entire Union Pacific passenger cars, and dome cars on the railroad. The entire train is awesome to see. I wish you wouldn't skip the rest of the train. Thanks for filming what you did though. I think it would have been cool too if they added a Union Pacific caboose. They have to have one of them laying around.

I was fortunate enough to catch the big boy in Victorville California. I took some pictures and a long video of the mighty engine taking off. There was a large crowd gathered to see such a beautiful and famous engine.

Loved watching this video. It's such a majestic artistry when a locomotive has billowing smoke pouring out. This scene was about 2/3 into the video. Thanks Mike!

Imagine if the 3985 came back and put these 3 locomotives in line watching the sunset together (sadly it would never happen but would be cool if 3985 was back) -

Was this two or more different consists? Some scenes have both 4014 and 844 and others have only 4014. Also the newer diesel electrics change from scene to scene.
