- This is a very long day, we chased it through salt flats, tunnels and more! Here are some shots of 4014 going through the salt flats and a tunnel towards the end of the video and more! I had a wonderful time chasing the train and will continue to chase it all the way to Sparks, Nevada. Day 5 is chasing the Big Boy through Salt Lake City, Utah - Elko, Nevada. Hopefully I'll get some good shots! Hope you enjoy this video!

Great trip with Union Pacific Big Boy 4014.
@@nathancorcoran5347 thank you!!!
@@Railfanner4014 ¿Te imaginas las 8 Big Boy preservadas en funcionamiento? Sería espectacular
For those of us who can't be there in person, your video is the next best thing! TY
@@VintageVermilion thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!!!
That whistle is so deep love it
Who loves Union Pacific Big Boy 4014?
Wish I could see it in person, but it's a long trip from Florida.
Would love to see it in person but here in NJ. Tracks here definitely couldn't handle The Big Boy and even if by some miracle it could come here the crowds would be insane!
@@euclideszoto997 The furthest east I've seen it go is New Orleans.
👍👍🤘❤️🚂
Awesome captures with great settings ❤it 👋👋👋
That scene reminds me of Sacramento Railfair 1999 with UP 844 and 3985 so as the fallen flag of CNW !!
Wow a Rebuilt Dash 9 locomotive something that’s old-fashioned but rebuilt Wabtec is doing an outstanding job rebuilding these locomotives
It’s an AC4400CW.
@@davidng2336 I was close but not too close it’s a rebuilt AC44CW very cool
@@TexasRailfan21-RailfanRyan yeah any GE looks great
@@davidng2336 I agree the fact that Wabtec is rebuilding engines as earliest as the B40-8W makes me happy to hear that these engines are getting a new chance in life rebuilt to last longer
This is an amazing video! Thank you so much for shooting it and sharing it! Best one we've seen!
Nicely done! The planning must have been extensive. Thank You!
@@UZ-tp6mn thank you so much!!
Incredible footage
@bigwoz78 thank you so much!!!
Awesome video!! Would love to see Big Boy in person!!!! 😊❤🚂
@@montanamtngirl thank you!
The under the train shots are amazing.
@@peterperkins2624 thank you!!
I'd sure like to know how he got from Wendover to Montello so fast! And I don't remember any tunnels between Wells & Elko! Other than these goofs, it was some nice videography.
The Diesel's doing most of the work.
No it's not. It's just there to provide dynamic braking and to extend the 4014's fuel range. 4014 is more than capable of hauling the train behind it.
@@CommercialsandMiscellaneous What you say is true. OK, I exaggerated, but the helper is also there to reduce wear and tear on Big Boy which is also a function of dynamic braking. No one is mass-producing steam locomotive parts, and each type of locomotive requires many unique parts. Brake-shoes for instance -those big drivers need custom made shoes. It's the same for any engine -the harder it's worked, the more maintenance is required, and when replacement of the bewildering array of fittings, seals, bearings, pumps etc. must be custom made the expense of maintenance can be prohibitive.
A locomotive working hard at speed. Poetry in motion

Extraordinary video's of the 4014 UP locomotive 🚂 especially this one 👍🏻💫💫💫💫💫
@@ericwilliams2619 thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊
10:30 the clamshell smoke deflectors retract. I'd never seen them actually move before.
@@sharkheadism me too!
Nice video, Like
Thank you!
Awww the diesel is back!
@@therocinante3443 yep...
Saving on the brake shoes.
Why does it have a diesel helper? I thought that had been replaced.
@@davidbross6942 to help with breaking, they don't want to damage it.
TOP SPEED SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE 55 TO 75 MPH. LOADED AND DUMPED WITH WATER AND OIL
. OPEN THE THROTTLE. UP🎉🎉🎉
@@stevencoenen9126 we only wish
NO DIESEL LOCOMOTIVE FOR THE BIG BOY 4014❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😢
@@stevencoenen9126 it ran the first 2 days without a diesel, then they added it.
Need to save 4014’s brakes. Mega $$$ for rebuilds.
#6388 is behind #4014
@@jacksalvin364 correct
🙂😉
Wonder what her average speed is on this run?
@@russellpowell4917 40 - 50 mph
@@Railfanner4014 cool thanks man
@@russellpowell4917 no problem
