I am 81 now and, as a boy, I would run down to the tracks and watch each time I heard the whistle of a steam engine. I wanted to be an engineer, but I became an airline Captain instead.

Good choice! Unfortunately the airline industry is what put a lot of these passenger trains and their locomotives out of business- both Steam and Diesel/electric.

Me too, although steam was long gone by my time, my first big fascination was anything and everything to do with the railroad. Now I'm a trucker, but what an era it must have been to lived during the tail end of the steam era! When my grandpa was a kid, he and his brother could catch rides on the caboose of a steam locomotive into town to take in a movie or whatever for 25 cents!

It's a different monster when actually shoveling coal. That oil feed fire is not the same. The power it has when coal fire feels a true inspiring machine made by man. It's just sad that 95 percent of the steam locos are being converted to oil burners. I did fireman work for 6 years on 618 and 75 in heber, Utah.
@dickdaley9059

Two men could not shovel sufficient coal into the heart of this beast to keep the pressure at 300psi. It had to use the screw auger to deliver coal to evenly distribute the fuel inside the boiler. The Fireman controlled the auger from his seat and balanced water insertion with independent valves during the run. Every function was manually controlled. Nothing automated, nothing programmed. Just experienced operators trained to 1940’s operations keeping the monster happy and fed! 🚂

I'm an 'airplane nut' but there is NOTHING more impressive than a GIANT steam locomotive shootin' out steam and smoke and sounding a steam whistle. Always amazed at how so many huge, heavy, 'loco' parts can be assembled and run at high speed without exploding and running off the tracks. Keep her running and best wishes to everyone who makes that possible. She's a national treasure.

How do you know it’s not a she? Hahaha
I wish someone would capture the eye lid that closes over the the smoke stack.
It is strange to see a glass panel inside the cab of a steam engine. This Big Boy is one beautiful machine.
The Best Job in the World ! 😊
In other countries, the whistle/horn is used to warn people of the approach of the train, not to make a noise for the sake of it...
Superb.
I'm surprised at how _quiet_ that engine actually is!
That fireman must have been overjoyed when UP converted her from coal to oil. Now he can sit back enjoy the ride.
It breathes, therefore it is alive!
i would do anything to get a cab ride with the 4014 from Dallas to Fort Worth in TX
That’s a massively impressive engineering achievement,,😊
What's more rare these days, seeing a steam engine running down the line or a J C Penney's?
Америка должна гордиться такими паровозами😊👍👍👍👍
Great video
And you could heat your dinner by leaving it on top of the boiler
5:49 What?! They still have obsolete bridges and tunnels on this route?! No double stack intermodal freigh?!.
At 0:54 the engineer is wearing genuine American made Roundhouse Brand overalls.
What happened to Steve Lee who ran the Challenger tears ago back east for the Santa Train?
I Drove Professional for 46 Years and 5million miles . One of the most important things was the Drivers Seat . How is the engineers seat in the 4014.
What is that console that looks like a digital display of some type? I've seen a lot of videos of this engine, but never one like this--thanks!
I wonder how they know what to with all of those valves
Who’s the good looking girl ?.
