  • The time has come for Northern California to bid farewell to Union Pacific 4014, AKA Big Boy. Big boy arrived this passed Thursday, July 11, 2024 (LINK BELOW TO SEE ARRIVAL) apart of its "Westward Bound Tour"
    After being on display to the public at Union Pacific's Roseville yard for two days, it's time for Big Boy to depart back home east to Cheyenne, Wyoming, U.S.A. Thus ending its tour time here in Northern California.Big Boy departed Roseville early Sunday morning on July 14th, 2023.
    Although trouble strikes...literally, at Auburn, California, U.S.A. Big Boy struck a tree causing some concerning damage, breaking a cylinder. Luckily Union Pacific's Steam Crew and others were able to rectify the situation quickly to be back on the move for a little over 3 hour delay.
    Now we can begin to follow and chase Big Boy out of Auburn, through Donner Pass, out towards Truckee, into the state of Nevada and finally into Reno/Sparks, Nevada to end it's run to the day. Where it will continue east to Cheyenne the next couple days.

    You are only one today who showed why the train was late. Going to meet train in Lovelock tomorrow, no trees near tracks out here.

    Awesome video! This was the first time we saw footage regarding the tree incident. My son and I spent almost a week with our Big Boy! We stayed the night in Colfax to witness the engine start from a stopped position. It didn't happen, but you caught the excitement my son had when the train passed through Colfax! Thank you, for being so polite when you found a position to film (in Colfax), yet not block anyone's field of vision!

    Oh to have been a passenger in that observation car like back in the old days aboard the 4449 several times, private cars and the 2472 for the centennial of North meeting South after the completion of the tunnels on Cuesta grade! Fun times galore!!!

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for this! I was unable to go see him as I was working a craft fair that day. I'm not sure why, but I absolutely love this engine. It makes me so emotional everytime I see it and hear it. So thank you! And also fir explaining the delay. This is definitely the best video out there!! ❤

    This is why the baggage cars directly behind the loco. The steam crew carry their portable steam repair shop on tour. So in cases like this, they can make needed repairs on site!

    Looks like the front right lower step on the side of the cowcatcher broke off from hitting the tree!

      It is interesting that as kids we were told it was called a cow catcher instead of “pilot” it’s real name. It is connected to a pilot bar, imagine that.

    Love your SBTB Intro with the Ace cab car. The engineer (also a railfan) in that photo is Will Ayers, who passed away over a year ago. He was my childhood friend in San Diego. It brought a tear to my eye when I saw that. Aside from that, great shots of 4014.

    It amazes me that they brag about this being the BIGGEST ENGINE EVER but they didn't go out along the tracks to check for and obstacles, like? TREES.????

    • @FanRailer
      @FanRailer 26 днів тому +3

      A train and a hi rail vehicle passed through that area just fine a few hours before 4014 did. The tree fell just at the wrong time.

    Strange how a tree just happened to fall so near the tracks.....
    Especially since crews have gone through there.

      That species is prone to suddenly falling. Especially after a prolonged heat wave.
      Pinus Sabiniana.

      The people you see in Colfax had been waiting for over four hours. When the Big Boy finally arrived, everyone rushed to the tracks. I was forced to move back in order to see and film. You can see my family and friends in the video. My son has been waiting for YEARS to have this moment and you can clearly see his excitement! The camara-man was very polite (I had to review my footage to see who it was), but most people who rushed in front of us were rude. So, you can "wish people didn't stand right in front of the camera," but after four hours of waiting, the young man filming this didn't have much of a choice. Too many people.

    Do you have any idea where they took the 1983 WP engine and the rest of the cars during the repair? You can see just the 4014 and the two fuel tenders while they were working on the 4014, but the rest of the train is gone.
