Union Pacific’s famous Big Boy #4014 has finally made its way through California! This video shows the entire journey (more or less) through California, Oroville to Roseville and then from Roseville to Auburn, after this it went to Sparks NV

All of this footage was taken by my mother and I who chased 4014 for 3 days, she’s just a big of fan of 4014 as I am, it was amazing seeing this locomotive with her

Lemme know what y’all think of these shots!

Pacing Big Boy | UP 4014 Pacing through the California WP Route / UP Westbound tour
Переглядів 373Місяць тому
UP 4014 came through California for the first time under his own power on this July afternoon. Being a California native I had to be there to see that, so I flew out from Oklahoma and paced big boy through areas I’ve seen my entire life - This was between Yuba city and Sacramento, there was a (very) rough little road by the water and for about 10 miles we managed to pace 4014, the camera shook ...

Переглядів 19 тис.Місяць тому
165’s restoration has FINALLY been completed at the WPRM! Just days before big boy #4014 came rolling into Portola, steam crews put the finishing touches on WP #165 - 165 has been under restoration for nearly 2 decades at this point and saw operation in mid - late 2022, these operations were hauled to complete the restoration and address leaks / problems with the engine - Today, July 10th 2024,...
Pacing a BNSF “Warbonnet” #766 By Complete Accident
Переглядів 1972 місяці тому
Cool little catch yesterday my friend and I had on the BNSF Fort Worth Sub going up near Justin, TX - We were sitting by alliance yard and all of a sudden saw a triple header lead by a bonnet, bonnets leading aren’t something we see everyday, so of course we tried to catch it, about 3 miles up the road we were doing the same speed as the train just by the speed limit of the road, worked out gre...
Pacing CP 2816 “The Empress” - CPKC Final Spike Tour: Shreveport, LA 🚂
Переглядів 1,5 тис.3 місяці тому
Managed to somewhat accidentally pace CPKC (CP) 2816 south of Shreveport for about a half mile, this was a stroke of pure luck, we caught her twice before deciding to call it a day due to time constraints and our route home took us by the tracks! We managed to catch up to 2816 pretty fast and I put my camera out the window to get arguably my best catch ever - 1st shot: CP 2816 Pacing shot 2nd s...
Nice video. Good to see WP steam active. Thumbs up!
Love those USRA 0-6-0 switchers. Great job getting it back up and running folks!
Absolutely beautiful 😇
Nice video train
I like this video i like train videos with the cabbose i like train videos with commercial passenger trains before Amtrak
Michael, thank you for posting the video of 165. When it was at the Alameda County fairgrounds, I did some painting on it. I had nothing to do with the infamous blue paint that was applied after my time there. Over the years, I also made some small donations to the project. Great to see the results of the restoration.
Magnificent catches of the UP 4014 Big Boy steam locomotive, i like it 5 stars. Hearing that puffing and chufing sound is crazy. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, i just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
Thank you! Hi from the U.S.A 🙏
@@MWTrains no problem, mate, keep it up.
@@MWTrains one day, i will travel to the USA and film that massive steam locomotive.
@@MWTrains it will be amazing .
I miss the caboose, I really miss the guys in the Caboose! Of course I was a little kid the last time I saw a caboose go by. At 4:00 we would run to the end of the block to watch the train go by. The guys in the Caboose would always toot the air whistle for us! That's a big deal at 6 years old!
Fantastic, the pacing was super. Auburn trestle exceptional.
@@2quintly thank you!
Im shocked California allowed this given how anal they are about emissions.
@@Secondary_Mango California is actually pretty decent when it comes to steam, we have a LOT of operating steam here, more than most of the U.S.
@@MWTrains Please relay that to the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, . . . . .
@@2quintly CSRM is actually about to restore ATSF 2-6-2 #1010 to steam for use on their Sacramento southern excursion trains, they also have granite rock #10 which is currently under going its rebuild, steams coming soon!
While it's great to see the engine up and running, I've NEVER seen a group of cabooses like that!! It warms my heart to see that SOME PEOPLE haven't trashed all cabooses.❤❤❤😊😊😊
I love it! The caboose train is definitely a unique consist
Money shot over I 80 in Auburn
I know! I was so happy
Great video, thanks for sharing. I can see myself in the Roseville clip.
lol where were you at? And thank you!
TRULY I TRULY REALLY TRULY WISH IT WAS STEAM LOCOMOTIVE #169 OR AT LEAST STEAM LOCOMOTIVE #167 .
Neither of those are around today sadly
grain of wheatbulb still operational on this Italian built HO model even if the motor has failed!
Did the tree uproot did the tree get cut down? Did the tree just break off from it? What kind of tree was it? Shouldn’t there couldn’t there be another vehicle checking the tracks before big boy comes up through the line?
My thoughts as well. Didn't U.P. do a track route inspection with a HyRail truck prior to Big Boy 4014 doing this route?
Funny thing is that the EB UPS hit this tree a week prior and MOW moved it over. 2 trains passed through within the prior 4 hours
The tree jumped out in front of it
Great to see engine under steam again!
What a crummy consist!
thank god they finally gave her boiler jacketing
Do you know if there are more Ex Santa Fe dash 9 bonnets are leading some other trains?
There’s dozens of warbonnet dash 9’s still around thankfully, most of the times you see them trailing behind leads, sometimes you see them leading tho
I'm gonna get shredded for saying this but omg it's so cute
Hey man, not disagreeing with you on that one 😂
Nice looking did a great job on the engine.😊 From Neil schwerdt in west valley city Utah
Thank you!
Well done, Michael. - Craig
Thank you!
Is that Tunnel #20, that goes under Racetrack St, before the tracks cross I-80?
Yessir!
No thats Tunnel 21 that goes under Mt Vernon Rd
The footage is super grainy due to the fact that the railroad police were blocking the tracks, this video is taken from a hill about 300 feet from the front of the locomotive, this is as close as anyone could get, the locomotive will have scars on the front pilot and a dent in the cylinder until it returns to Cheyenne
Where is this, exactly?
The valve timing is beautiful of this locomotive, fantastic job
I know! She runs like a dream
Hello from Kansas 🇺🇲
Hello!
Thanks for sharing, glad you were able to capture it!
Thanks! And me too lol
What a lovely little locomotive! It's fantastic to see her in steam.
Agreed! Nice to see some WP for once
Fantastic!! Beautiful job! #165 is a star! Let's hope WP Mikado #334 will be restored one day too!
One can dream!
One of my favorite mikados more so than 4501 since she's newer
I would personally prefer 94, because I love 4-6-0's, but it is just as likely to be run again as 334, as the WRM currently has no plans to restore it, as far as I know.
I was there! even got to ride in the cab of this beauty!
Lucky man!
There’s just something mesmerizing about watching the running gear go round and round.
Oh absolutely, it’s hypnotic, I could watch it all day
Cool little steam switcher, thanks!
They did a great job!n How many WP steam locomotives still exist besides this one?
Actually a decent amount, 26, 94, 164, 165, and 334 are all still around, 165 is the only one of them to be under steam in the 21st century however
Her whistle sounds different.
New boiler jacketing and paint looks great!
Awesome video man!!
