Thanks for your work so I could watch this in Canada. I saw 4014 in Pomona when I was a little kid. I told my dad they should fix her so she could run again. He told me that would never happen. Love you dad. I saw Big Boy run again. As much as I love seeing it run at speed, Im more impressed to see the engineer run the giant flame breather as gentle as a lamb. Cheers from PEI.
Hopefully Big Boy gets whatever issues it had out of it after this trip and gets decades of service to to come. Congrats to UP for restoring an American icon!
@@drby0788 yes that clank you heard coming from 4014 is not good they fixed that and the cylinder was leaking a big they also fixed that other than that she ran really well
Thank you very much for sharing this full length video! Very well done! This is much better than anything we can buy from the major producers who still do everything in DVD quality.
What's that amazingly quaint little town around the 43 minute mark - the tiny cluster of houses out in the middle of the vast prairie - it's almost heart-achingly idyllic! Thanks for capturing all this amazing footage of 4014 returned to the rails, alive and steaming!
My congratulations and grateful thanks to UP for investing in its own history as well as the great traditions and history of the United States of America. My congratulations also go to Fan Railer, who has supplied the best compilations yet to be seen as of this date. I have read so many opinions sounding like: "4014 has these issues. 844 has those issues." Although I am a fanatic enthusiast of steam power, I cannot tell who has what issues, but with the millions in dollars and human knowledge UP has already invested, I would have full faith that they will correct any issues that appear during the break-in period. I'm sorry not to see 844 high-balling the way we know she can, but she has to work with the breaking in of 4014. These videos are irreplaceable for the many of us who cannot be there in person. Thank you!
Enjoyed every minute of this magnificent footage. The long lens helps capture the scenery which for me (as a Dutch/Australian who spent time driving across some of these parts of the US) adds to the event. Well done sir. I look forward to seeing much more footage as you capture what comes next.
At first I didn’t know it take a few days for them to get to Ogden I thought they be there in one day but never mind, and nice footage of the #4014 and #844! 😃
That is pretty cool! Thanks for making the video. The best for me was seeing the lead drivers slip as the Bigboy was taking off at 20:10 with slipping at 20:33! No wonder after a few days of running the lead drivers were turning gray from what I assume are sand going down.
This is very awesome footage! I hope you enjoyed the chase. Wait until 2021 or 2022 to catch the third operational steam locomotive that UP is going to restore soon, which is Challenger 3985. It hasn’t seen service since 2010 and was waiting this long for an overhaul due to 4014's restoration.
Man, does that locomotive (UP 4014) have power to spare pulling that passenger train. Seems to be doing its thing with little effort. Would love to see video of this engine pulling a 5000+ ton freight train upgrade! Wonderful video shots and thanks for sharing!
Great video keep up the great work. But I am curious how where you able to get ahead of him I was in echo Utah and the traffic was crazy freeway and side roads just wondering. Thank you again for your videos great work.
Am I the only one who thinks it's just a bit off putting seeing the Big Boy lead the double header in front of the 844? Don't get me wrong I love to see the Big Boy up and running, but it just doesn't look right to me visually.

Great footage! Appreciate it for all of us who couldn't join in the chase!
This is why I wished in Wyoming and Utah lol.
#4014 has an awesome whistle!! low, loud, and powerful for her legacy!!

This is one hour of awesomeness! Thank you for all of the hard work you put into making this video!
Awesome camera work sir! I was able to see it from Morgan into Ogden, not nearly as well as your angles. That machine gives me chills!!
At first I didn’t know it take a few days for them to get to Ogden I thought they be there in one day but never mind, and nice footage of the #4014 and #844! 😃
Best video I have seen of the 4014. Amazing job.
So glad to hear the 4014 Big Boy whistle under it's own steam power instead of that annoying toot toot from the Diesel that towed it back to Cheyenne.
Love the walkie talkie radio Transmissions bro.

I still see these videos and I find it hard to believe, it’s like a dream
Spectacular footage!
EXCELLENT video, thanks for positing this!

3985 wont be coming back

Fan Railer Great Shots! I hope you had a great time chasing the big boy. Just subscribed too.
Waves and Cheers wherever they go.
I hear most of the sounds coming from 844's wheels as they both pass by
nice catch again 😝
One hour? Wow!
Super video!
Look at his wheel slip at 6:42.
Good eye!
What an icon! Amazing!
Great job.
Great video keep up the great work. But I am curious how where you able to get ahead of him I was in echo Utah and the traffic was crazy freeway and side roads just wondering. Thank you again for your videos great work.
This is great video lots of action thanks.
Why is Big boy 4014 and 844 making those hissing sounds when they're moving? it sounds like too much steam
1:17 RIP Headphone users
Oh 844 your not in front. 4014 pulls ya. I. Say 4014 has a strange whistle too but i love 844s whistle a ghostly sound
Cops just out to ruin the last leg of the trip?
It's a shame they didn't revive a DDX for the diesel backup.
In the end of the scene, where are 844 and diesel locomotive?
You can closely see another passenger train before Big Boy blocks the view. I think that’s where they went.
It's still not clear to my why the diesel is there? And the other steam engine, for that matter.
Which car is the auxiliary boiler car from the front? I have heard there is an auxiliary boiler car in this train. I just do not know which car it is.
Not sure. Might be the first car though
Why was the mars light taken off?
Ok 4014 haas its front part turn some on turns but 844 has a ghostly sound whistle.
Do they use DEF in those engines? lol Doesn't look like it!
if they wouldnt honk as much you could perhaps hear the sound a little better ... ^^
844's wheels look dirty.
gets your blood pumping
this is good, but too much panning.
Am I the only one who thinks it's just a bit off putting seeing the Big Boy lead the double header in front of the 844? Don't get me wrong I love to see the Big Boy up and running, but it just doesn't look right to me visually.
Yes you are
You really think what people will watching all 1 hour??
