This week we have a special interview with Ed Dickens of the Union Pacific railroad and head of the steam program in Cheyenne Wyoming as he talks about running the 4014 Big Boy locomotive and his passion for model railroading. This amazing steam locomotive visited the St. Louis area this past weekend August 28th-30th. Joshua Barton, Daniel Coombs, Ken Patterson and Auston Allard all share their video and still photos of the event covering all parts of the area where the locomotive ran. We also share many of the various Big Boy locomotives on the market in HO and O scale on the show table.
Your interview with Mr. Dickens was fantastic. He is truly a humble man which makes him an excellent leader. He stated that running the locomotive is a blessing and I say that those of us that are a part of this hobby are also blessed. Good job!
Fantastic show! Thank you very much. 👍🏻🚂
Hats off & Handshakes for a super show ,Loved the interview with Ed, He's sure know stranger to those of us that followed from the Park I. Cali.to today WOW 4 the love of STEAM !
Another great video, the interview was fantastic. Although I have to admit I was pulling my hair out a little bit during the interview wanting to scream out "will you stop folding the chairs and putting them on the table while we're shooting a video over here!!!!!!!!!!!!! are you new? "
Awesome episode and an amazing interview! Thanks Guy’s!
Met Ed in Denver when we volunteered at 4014's rest there, he and the crew signed my bigboy poster, yes, very nice man

Fantastic show
Amazing pictures,videos,an interview!
Excellent interview, Ken!
Terrific show guys and gals. Great pictures and video of “Mr. Big Boy” and I was really impressed with Ed. His care and concern for his team is admirable and noteworthy for all transportation personnel. Thanks Ken.
Great show this week! Thanks so much!
Super interview with Ed. Thanks guys.
Watching on Monday 6 September in Northern Ireland. Thanks for an excellent program.
Ken, thanks for the great interview with Ed. It was very well done and offered some great insights! I really enjoyed! Great show!
What a wonderful podcast! At 11:00 where the 4014 is under the arch ... Ken you need to model that scene!
And that interview, Priceless!
Good episode Ken. What a neat interview with the Bog Boy engineer.
Awesome interview, Ed is always a pleasure to listen to- thanks his team every time. Those were some great shots under the arch. Great show guys, thanks.
Modelling the Big Boy at the moment and this has helped me immensely, many thanks. Great show.
Happy Modelling 😊
Excellent interview of Ed.
Watching this great show from Australia 🇦🇺 unreal episode Big boy What a legend
Great interview.
Very nice interview with Ed. We will see 4014 on Tuesday in Greely Co. As always another good show Ken and crew.
What a truly articulate gentleman Ed is. Really enjoyed the interview.
Some really awesome photos of the Big Boy in St Louis in this What Neat this Week, the one with the Big Boy with the person on the horse with the American Flag was brilliant shots. The closest we got to that in the UK is a recent Lloyds Bank advert which you see a Horse running alongside the Flying Scotsman and also Big Boy with the St. Louis Arch was brilliant shots as well. Honestly loved them! a lovely epic What Neat This Week episode.
Fantastic show👍👍👍👍
Great to see so much steam!
Great interview with Ed!
Thx again.
I'm not sure what to say. 4014 and Union Pacific's support of their steam program, makes UP a truly great railroad.
I went to see big boy 4014 my self and I had a blast 😊
Amazing interview. Also note at every stop Ed is looking to talk with children. He is an tremendous asset to th UP.
Good one 👍
Brilliant episode. :) The Big boy is an American loco I'd love to see for real. :)
Last year before the lunatic shut everything down I visited the last UP Cab Forward in Sacramento! It was awesome!
If you are ever in the area you should go and see it. This machines are disappearing.
Miss N Scale. Otherwise great show! So informative.
Ken, the Ed Dickens interview was great! Thanks for putting him on WNTW.
Very Cool!! Awesome Job!!!
UP emphasizes that 25 feet is a safe distance to be trackside. Laser optics on the front end could project a straight line 25 feet out showing this distance. Bicyclists have rear lights that project a line like this on the pavement.
In 2019 the Big Boy 4014 came to Milwaukee. I went to see it and the whole Union Pacific train out at the Butler yards. The next day it was going to Sturtevant and Chicago so I went down to 51st and Lincoln Avenue where the tracks cross Lincoln at a beautiful angle to see it under full steam. Last week I was at the Green Bay National Railroad Museum and not only saw Big Boy 4017, but was able to be in the cab. Took some good photos of all those many gizmos. Enjoyed both events very much.
The Locomotive known as BIGBOY is/was the Wasatch Class of locomotive, designed to run between Ogden UT and Cheyenne Wyo. It is well known because UP had a PR
Department and the line runs along the Lincoln Highway. Two other locomotives are in this class, Duluth Missabe Yellowstone and C&O Allegeny's. But the film shot of Bigboy running along the Lincoln Highway is what over shadowed the other two Steam Heavy weights. I still wonder about UP3985.
What A Great Show! The Interview With Mr. Ed Dickens Was Just Outstanding! He Has A Passion With His Job, The People, & The Union Pacific Railroad! He Is So Humble & Down To Earth! I Love The Models Of That Iconic Machine.."Union Pacific Big Boy 4014" Nice Pics...Scott Nauert! I Love All The Video's Of The Union Pacific "Big Boy" This Is "The Best Hobby In The World" "Best People In It" Till Next Time! MoPac Jack Running Trains With..Erin..My Daughter & Emily..My Grandaughter! Bonding Time With My Girls! Rock N' Roll Be Safe!
Your table smells of a Merica! Amazing models. Still watching🚂🇨🇦🇺🇸
HELLO KEN ITS IS RANDY AND I LIKE U VIDEO IS COOL THANKS KEN FRIENDS RANDY
Nice
Great show I loved all the Big Boy's on the table and the interview with Ed. I also liked your comment about it could be Z scale. As your 3 mile off video did look like it could have been one of American Z Lines. Z scale Big Boy's running by on one of our Z scale modules at a show.
Speaking of Z scale, since Z is 1/220 gauge . Is there any chance you could dedicate Show #220 to Z scale?
David
I don't know how many people know this but Ed Dickens started out working for the Durango and Silverton rr
All these models of the Big Boy of which there were only 25 made, yet we can't get a single manufacturer to make an HO scale NYC/NKP H-5 Mikado of which there were hundreds. SMH
With all electric locomotives, we wont need to buy expensive sound for new units.
10:30 WOW!
I wonder if Steve Lee has seen the Big Boy under steam.
What restaurant does Sugerfire work at?
St. Louis..Downtown
Mantia
How can I contact Steve Mantis
He gave out his phone number on show #167
Do they make the BigBoy in N scale?
Athearn makes it in N scale.
@@kenamosjr.bo_51 awesome thanks for the help I appreciate it very much. I’ve wanted one since I was a little boy. I’m 50 now and I will have me one. Again thanks for the help!!😋😋
WOW! Ken the best that's neat this week I have ever seen. Thank you for your effort in this interview. How are you going to top that????
