  • The Big Boy 4014 has made it to the Feather River Canyon. Due to traffic, I could not get to some shots but here's the ones I got. A big thank you to Renorailfan for hanging out with me during the trip and giving me the footage for the loop after my camera died. I had a wonderful time chasing the train and will continue to chase it all the way to Sparks, Nevada. Day 8 is chasing the Big Boy through Portola - Roseville, California. Hopefully I'll get some good shots! Hope you enjoy this video!

      I know how you feel. I'm just climbing out of some physical health issues that mentally put me in the dump. These kinds of videos kept my mind off it. Years ago I got invited to go with some retired railway workers in a old private Pullman from Salt Lake City to feather River. $350 . I could not get off work. So I traveled in my mind again for this video. I hope things work out for you.

    Truly Iconic! To see and hear a big boy on the Keddie Y must have been incredible. Got to see it up and close at the Roseville Yard, where it did a layover. Most excellent video. BRAVO! and huge thanks for the effort.

      @@russcudney1469 You peaked my curiosity and found that diesel are subject to emission standards (with some exceptions). However, historic steam locomotives are exempt from the standards both Fed and CARB (to the best that i can find). I know, that doesn’t mean that nobody will complain. That said, I believe that the Big Boy has been converted to oil, which should be better than coal.
