Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 July 4 2024

Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 steam locomotive, leaving Evanston Wyoming to Salt Lake City Utah.
This was an amazing site to see on the 4th of July.
I had two cameras with, as you can see the difference.

It amazes me that people standing 20 feet from a running BigBoy would put a phone in front of their eyes.

agree, they are truly missing the experience

It’s awesome in person! If you ever get the chance to see it in person you should!! Nothing compares!!

[@lisajensen3262]

We're going to try to go to Roseville to see it. 😊

It’s a lot faster that I thought, it was going about 80 down by the salt lake

....and all of the cars are graffiti free... I love it when people get a close up pucture.... I CAN NOT GET THE WHOLE THING IN ONE FRAME!

[@user-uc9tj5uh8x]

Не устаю им любоваться, это выдающийся паровоз❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ в россии нет таких😢

[@rickbarnes8556]

I wish they could put the diesel at the rear of the train and use it like a DPU if they needed dynamic braking. It might take some doing to rig the Big Boy as the control unit, but I would think it reasonably possible.

[@J3scribe]

I'm sure if you funded it, they would consider it. haha I think they should place traction motors on the first, second and last axles of the tender, if possible. Electricity could be supplied from a power car, via MU, behind the water tenders. I'm sure they could figure out how/where to incorp[orate the DB system. But again, $$$$$

[@rodcurry6387]

Seeing #4014 is always a treat, but I wonder where Union Pacific was hiding their clean and fresh freight cars? I guess U.P. had them under lock 🔒 and 🗝️ key and armed guards to keep the graffiti taggers at bay....😂😂😂😂

[@spikespa5208]

Hope so.

[@paulmace9165]

EMD EXTENDED RANGE DYNAMIC BRAKING

[@andypettit5869]

Saves brake shoes time and money.

[@user-in8vv7ko5s]

They said no more diesel. What happened?

[@marderdax]

Jährlich bin ich in Kalifornien und immer verpasse ich sie

[@kevinbreaker2683]

Why? Does the,,,diesel look like it's been on fire

[@justanotheraviator2357]

sometimes the GEs do that (catch on fire)

[@struck2soon]

The bloody diesel is back…😖

[@J3scribe]

Custom brake pads aren't cheap. :/

[@russelllitterell2311]

What is the car directly behind the engine?

[@J3scribe]

The two large, yellow tenders are full of water. Steam locomotives drink water like rednecks drink Bud Light.

[@fargomom63]

The tinder is black & holds fuel oil I believe. The first yellow car I believe is the water tanker. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

[@samuellong7829]

Hey why does the Union Pacific 4014 have a diesel locomotive behind it

[@lilfrostygamplays1665]

Descending Down Echo and Weber Canyon plus providing additional help going upgrades💯

[@JWar949]

The diesel/electric loco is only there to provide electrical power to the passenger cars. BigBoy produces pulling power only not electricity.

[@5280bj]

No - no on the electrical power. Freight engines are not set up to make 480 Volt 3 phase power. Besides, the Boiler-Dorm car has a Cat generator running in it, to power the three Steam Crew cars... A diesel will most likely appear now behind 4014 when traveling down the more steeply decending grades like Weber Canyon and Donner.

[@brucefrytz8611]

I don't like seeing that damned diesel back behind 4014, regardless of the fact it's not doing any pulling, it just looks WRONG!

[@bblaylk]

My guess is to save 4014's very expensive brake shoes on the long descent.

[@kevinbreaker2683]

Shadow maybe I don't know Look dark

Underexposure issues.
