    I took a fan trip pulled by a class j steam locomotive.I will never forget her whistle.So deep once you hear it you never forget it.Being born in the late 1960 I did not get to see the steam locomotive.Only in old movies.The first time I heard of 3985.Was one sunday morning my mother was going to church.She tolded me to turn to cbs sunday morning.They did a story on 3985 and there she was.Big huge her side rods where a blur her whistle blowing.They did a cool thing.She meet a freight train who blew its whistle and 3985 did the same.As they passed each other.Cool good times in my child hood.

      Kenneth McCann Not millions. Wear and tear happens even with the best of maintenance. I would consider a century a pretty impressive amount of time, but past that extensive overhauls will be necessary to continue running an engine - for example, a completely new boiler.

    *I rode the 4014 Excursion in New Orleans, my son and husband waited at a crossing for us to come by, we were departing Audubon Butterfly Park, and the weather was a blistering 90+ degrees out, but it was my sons first time seeing and feeling a steamer operate in person. My son told me it was worth sweating and almost passing out for. He said when 4014 slowly rolled past him, the ground shook, the whistle made his bones shutter, and the steam from the steam chest drain cocks felt so amazing. He always says that was the best steam experience of his life. And I’m glad I took him to see 4014 when he/she visited New Orleans.*

    When this movie was made the Union Pacific hadn't even started to think about how they were going to truly celebrate the 150th anniversary of the world's first transcontinental railroad in May 2019. Well, May 2019 has come and the UP has once again outdone themselves. Fifty years ago as a kid I was amazed at the biggest diesel EMD ever produced graced the rails in 1969 for the 100th year anniversary of the world's first transcontinental railroad, the 6900 class DDA40X, the Centennials. Today I'm in absolute awe as the UP Railroad rebuilt a Big Boy, the 4014, put a fire back into her belly and put her to work doing PR for the railroad.

    This makes me swell up with pride! As a boy, I watched early diesels -- RS-1s and RS-2s, along with GP9s -- work the local yard. But boy -- every once in a while, an excursion train with a steamer at the head would roll by, and I would keep tryin' to see her, until she rolled outta sight.
    But I figure it like this: An old girl like 3985 is 'bout as temperamental as you can get -- just like an old, seaworthy Lady who still sails for the Navy, or even an old classic hot rod that still has life in her. You take care of her, listen to her, treat her right, and she'll ALWAYS get you home. But you don't do any of that, boy...she'll leave you stranded quicker than hornets come after their nest gets kicked.
    But I'll add one more thing: I'm hopin' to bring my niece to see either #3985, #844, or #4014, when she gets a bit older -- just to see the wonder and amazement of a steamer on the head of a train.

    I wish someone would develop a new challenger class locomotive, but with today's technology integration into the steam so its efficient at burning oil or gas hot, and putting out a crazy amount of tractive effort for one engine, like twice the amount of effort as a big boy.. thatd be pretty sweet to see a 2019 Challenger Class Steam Locomotive.

    WOW ! What a great video. I would have loved to work in that shop. I was a boiler tender in the Navy and was a millwright, for 31 years, at the Bethlehem Steel, Bethlehem, PA. We used massive two stage steam engines to run the rolling mill.
    Black smoke? Uh Oh ! If we smoked black aboard ship, someone from the bridge would be on the box yelling at the BT operating the boiler. That's a big no no! It also took us four hours to bring the boiler on line from a cold start. After 4 hours you were ready to go.
    There's a Challenger and a Big Boy in Steamtown (Scranton, PA) just north of here. I usually go to Steamtown once a year and always take another look at both locomotives. They are just amazing machines to look at.

    If ever there was a reason to preserve the Great Steam Locomotives, this story is it. A sad tale that those magnificent machines should be scrapper when they had many years more useful service life. The public was made to pay for the decision to go to diesel. The Railroads still had to pay for the engines they were scrapping. Then they paid for the new monsters. Rail rates went up to pay for it. This business of putting 3985 out to pasture on hauling passenger cars is silly. If you are going to operate it - put it into regular main line revenue service. It is capable of hauling heavy freight. You invested a lot of money to keep it alive. Get a return on investment in great order than specialty passenger trained once in a while. You have an ambassador - Put him to work, Let the mournful sound of the locomotive whistle be heard in the valleys and across the plains. Yes. Let the kids see the real thing - Engine that helped to make America Great. The nation owes recognition to these machines for what they did to help win a war. Veterans are honored but the engines that moved millions of tons of supplies to win the war were rewarded by the pain of the cutters torch.

The Challenger 3985 is being restored again now in Illinois and "big boy" 4014 has now returned to operation 3 years ago now serving as a member of the UP rr heritage steam fleet. Hopefully the UP 3985 will return to operation by 2030 or so, as steam locomotive maintenance takes a long period of time.

      "In 2019, Union Pacific will run their heritage equipment across the country to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad. Due to Union Pacific Railroad’s utilization of its historic rail cars in 2019, The Denver Post Cheyenne Frontier Days Train will not operate."

      I'd keep an eye out for next year. It doesn't sound like it's permanent.

    UP 3985 has officially been retired, according to a Facebook post from UP steam shop manager Ed Dickens.

      The second retirement was short lived. The 3985 is coming back in Silvis, IL, thanks to the Railroading Heritage of Midwest America. Much progress has been made in the short time the 3985 has been in Silvis.

      This was made in the early 2000s, and 3985 hasn't been in steam for almost 9 years. It's awaiting a heavy rebuild.

      They can and sometimes do. The "Howard Fogg" is a boiler dorm, complete with small kitchen and bunk beds, no frills whatsoever. I'm sure the U.P. springs for hotel rooms/meals/transportation though; if not nightly, at least weekly on longer tours. I'll also guess that any sleeping cars they are pulling are strictly reserved for top brass, revenue passengers and selected guests ONLY.
