    UP 4014 restoration progress

    Union Pacific 4014 "Big Boy" that was dragged out of an LA park a few years ago is progressing. It will certainly be impressive for it to be in steam again. UP: Steam Update: Big Boy’s Restoration Nearly Complete

    It is to Union Pacific's credit that they fund the restoration and maintenance of their heritage steam fleet

    Hi Tote, and the Big Boy is now back in steam and there are already heaps of videos.

    Do a google for UP Big Boy and then sit back and enjoy!

    Yep, I've been watching a few of them. The drivers seem to be being pretty gentle with her at the moment but that is understandable given the fairly heavy schedule that they have set up
    UP: Steam Schedule

    We went and had a look at 4018 when we were in the states in 2014 Museum of the American Railroad > Home The Big Boys make a Garrett look like a shunting engine.
