    Rowan and Jackson, thank you both to making the trip from Front Royal, Virginia to St. Louis, Missouri with stops starting at Scott City, Missouri to capture Union Pacific 4014. You had some great footage here Rowan. I had the privilege of taking my daughter's two youngest children to see the Big Boy at West Chicago, Illinois on 27 July 2019 when it was on its way back from a trip to Minneapolis/St. Paul and Duluth, Minnesota. After getting back to the Twin Cities, the Big Boy took former Chicago & North Western trackage from the Twin Cities to Milwaukee, Wisconsin and then from Milwaukee to the Chicago area. We did not get to see the Big Boy in action. The Big Boy arrived in the Chicago area on 26 July 2019 and was on static display at West Chicago, Illinois from late that evening until the morining of 29 July 2019 when it left westbound on the Union Pacific, former Chicago & North Western, Geneva Subdivision toward Clinton, Iowa and return trip via the "Overland Route" to Omaha, Newbraska and an eventual return to Cheyenne, Wyoming. We got to get up close and personal with the Big Boy and walk through the "Experience the Union Pacific" exhibition car. I have been looking at quite a number of videos on the Big Boy's 2021 trip from the beginnoing until the present. You video was the first that I have seen that covered the trip through the southern part of Illinois to St. Louis. Thank you for posting this video!!

    That was railFANTASTIC Rowan!! What an exciting video to watch. When it premiered Sunday I couldn't get it full screen on my large TV and spent most of the time trying to sort that out. That's now fixed and to see the whole thing on the large screen is just totally awesome. You and Jackson made a good team to get everything you did in one trip. I loved the details on the "Big Boy" and the great videos with the chase and the crowds. Made my day.

    I actually Live in the St. Louis area and caight 4014 when she stopped in Washington, Missouri. Things got so crazy with how many people were there that before she left there was a car accident because someone was racing to get ahead of the train before she left town. As a side note I've also see both 3985, and 844 when they both came intotown both in 2009, 2011, and 2016. Sp I have now seen all three members of the UP's Big Three while they were in operation.

I saw Big Boy in Valley Park, MO, near the National Museum of Transportation by Kirkwood, MO, where one (1) of Big Boy’s (# 4006) seven (7) remaining Brothers resides in the Museum. Crowds were Huge ALL across State of Missouri. 👍

You were able to catch a fair amount of the engines movement from that one spot. Was he highballing or what right then.!?! That was great!!! Don't know whether you planned it or not, but the engine on the bridge with the Arch as a backdrop was a perfect way to end the chase. Loved riding along with you guys!!!

      @@RailfanRowan yeah it was awesome! It blew my mind how massive it was! It was stopped at a union pacific rail yard and made the other engines look tiny!

    Nice video and you showed what it is like during a chase behind the sceenes. I chased Big Boy 2 year ago in Utah and Wyoming and I was on a chase of Cotton Belt 819 on the same route you guys did but gong from St.Louis to Scott City (Ilmo). Good job.
