Union Pacific Big Boy

[@byronpink9061]

This never gets old to watch. So very nostalgic indeed! Thanks for taking the time to video, edit and share this with us. Love it!

The incredible strength and beauty of this marvel of engineering and human creation, which I discovered in 1967, is astounding - a true symbol of America's might, admires everyone, wherever he is. Azer. M Baku, Azerbaijan

I'll bet Big Boy was feeling very nostalgic as he was driving by all those freight cars. It'd be like: "Wow, I used to pull quite a few of these freight cars behind me in my day. Those sure were the good ol' days. At least now I have a new job giving rides to tourists rather than collecting dust as a museum exhibit. Wish I could say the same for my brothers."

Can you imagine being a traveler driving down the road and not aware this was coming at you.

Big Boy I love it! When the Whistle blows from the Big Boy it says I Still am The King Of The Rail!

[@Gr504-l1u]

It was so exciting when 4014 passed by our house in New Orleans

[@HaleHunterz]

Wasn't moving nearly as fast when I saw it but still, was one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.

Thanks for sharing this awesome video. You did a outstanding job shooting it. I would love to have a DVD of it .

[@michaelclark9762]

You're in a few of the photos I took of #4014 coming into Gurdon the morning of August 26. It looks like you caught me in Prescott and Gurdon as well. I was behind a pickup truck and The Travelling Gandy Dancer's little van at the Ouachita River just outside Arkadelphia, but my parked vehicle is easy to spot in your video.

[@gingerbread6614]

Great job. Fantastic shots. Thank you so much.

[@garliclovers1416]

Haha " Please don't hog that horn its only for emergencies " Then the horn blasts out a long blast.😂😂 Fantastic pictures. Loved every second of it. That is some long lens you've got. Brilliant photography.

[@fernandosantiagorodrigueze5532]

¿Some video of today of the Big Boy?

[@asingh5482]

A mechanical engg marvel.

[@tvvidchannel]

A wonderful video!

[@nursesteve2004]

curious....there is a diesel engine behind the three tenders....is the engine active during the run or is it just being towed by the Big Boy and used in case of a breakdown?

[@torryjobe6244]

It is online and used for braking to save wear on Big Boys brake shoes. Also used as a backup in case of emergency as to not take a chance on clogging the mainline.

[@singerrajendranmani3806]

I am waiting for BIG BOY TO come fast to play on our INDIAN RAILWAYS, HOPE THE SUPER HERO WILL FULFILL MY DREAMS.

[@CypressDeer]

*what*

[@voidjavelin23]

i dont think big boy would able to fit into indian railways loading gauge, american locomotives are more taller than indians got

[@hittmiss]

Very noticeable flat wheel towards the end of the train.

So it was you on that ladder?

[@FanRailer]

Nope. I was standing on top of my truck.

[@wormboi8793]

@@FanRailer you possibly saw me? Did you see somebody brave enough to walk across the rails with all the police standing there, that would’ve been me

13:05 if you don't see that steam coming out under the cylinders, it's not running uner it's own power, but being pushed by diesel. for example like 1:01

[@FanRailer]

LOL that couldn't be more false. If you don't see steam coming out from under the cylinders, that's only because the cylinder cocks are closed.

[@Maxmellow94]

Plus it’s burning oil may not have the same effect as coal burning steam

[@sahibzadamanzoor2652]

How many reasons are supposed to be counted for which these locos are totally obsoleted, 1..slow movements(time loosing 2...more expensive. 3...environmental and pollution creating. 4...opportunities of other sources of powers. 5...uncomfortable for oprators. 6....too costly maintaining functional provisions. 7....at least 4/5 OTHER causes to be on line in future or running around where possible. Thanks everybody,concerning my question.

[@voidjavelin23]

pollution is pretty much less pollute since the locomotive is a oil burner
