Big Boy 4014 Westward Bound Tour Part 3, Rawlins, WY to Creston, WY

Pretty awesome. As an "Original Transcon RR" enthusiast, this area reminds one of a photo A.J. Russell took in 1868, approx., showing Dan Casement, Cornelius Bushnell, his daughter, etc., while UP was being built. Russell's photos can be found on OMCA site, are quite remarkable, upon navigating past their intro page. Another rephotography opportunity is at Green River, where A.J. exposed several wet plates of Jack Casement and his guys building the permanent bridge there. THAT photo was published in Frank Leslie's magazine, revealing Russell's rise as one of the first "Photo-journalists" of his day....quite remarkable, given those times of Manifest Destiny, and limits of the technology of the era. Thanks for the video. Subscribed.😇

I love looking at older photos of steam engines. Would have been cool to have lived when they were all over the railroad.

I LOVE LOVE locomotives and I’m eagerly waiting to see the amazing machine in Roseville, CA I CANNOT WAIT. Idc how hot it is I have to see this

What a magnificent behemoth! So glad they restored it.

[@railgraphix]

It is such a sight to see!

Ah yes...the ever present Rawlins wind.

[@railgraphix]

Even with an external mic and wind sock it is there.

Big 1! Am I dreaming??

[@friscohamster6100]

Great videos! Try a windscreen on your microphone to make them even greater!

[@railgraphix]

There was a wind sock being used. I have since stopped using it due to it not recording at times.

The algorithm is weird. This is only the second new Big Boy video I've seen since that incident in which it helped a stalled freight train last year (the first one, just moments before clicking on this one, I couldn't comment on due to that pesky Made for Kids label). Now my itch has been scratched.
