Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 July 4 2024
Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 steam locomotive, leaving Evanston Wyoming to Salt Lake City Utah.
This was an amazing site to see on the 4th of July.
I had two cameras with, as you can see the difference.

It amazes me that people standing 20 feet from a running BigBoy would put a phone in front of their eyes.

you can excuse the babe in her very short jean cut-offs!
Really great footage of 4014 👍🚂 A perfect way to spend the Fourth of July 🇺🇸
Wonderful shots of a wonderful locomotive 👍👍👍 ! A Big Thank You for sharing !
This is a beautiful piece of Steam Era Engineering. The pinnacle of that Era. And to think that we will be going to all battery powered electric in the next few years! (Kidding about the electric)
that steam locomotive is so awesome

Seeing #4014 is always a treat, but I wonder where Union Pacific was hiding their clean and fresh freight cars? I guess U.P. had them under lock 🔒 and 🗝️ key and armed guards to keep the graffiti taggers at bay....😂😂😂😂

I wish they could put the diesel at the rear of the train and use it like a DPU if they needed dynamic braking. It might take some doing to rig the Big Boy as the control unit, but I would think it reasonably possible.

I'm sure if you funded it, they would consider it. haha I think they should place traction motors on the first, second and last axles of the tender, if possible. Electricity could be supplied from a power car, via MU, behind the water tenders. I'm sure they could figure out how/where to incorp[orate the DB system. But again, $$$$$
The caboose got left somewhere in California when it went highballin up to Donner after the tree strike it had no caboose but damn was he laying the power on
I would love to see the 4014 but I'm all the way in the East anyway you can bring it east

Well now, isn't this interesting. Here is the Big Boy, with a Diesel Engine, "Helper"? Maybe the electronics package installed into the tender, failed or malfunctioned. Or is it because even with the added cars. The Big Boy needs help braking. Or perhaps a bit of a push up some hills? I know when it left Cheyenne back on June 30th, there was no Diesel engine, because I watched it go out, and took a video of it. Very odd, that the Diesel engine if back.
Why? Does the,,,diesel look like it's been on fire

sometimes the GEs do that (catch on fire)
What is the car directly behind the engine?

The two large, yellow tenders are full of water. Steam locomotives drink water like rednecks drink Bud Light.

The tinder is black & holds fuel oil I believe. The first yellow car I believe is the water tanker. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Hey why does the Union Pacific 4014 have a diesel locomotive behind it

The diesel/electric loco is only there to provide electrical power to the passenger cars. BigBoy produces pulling power only not electricity.

No - no on the electrical power. Freight engines are not set up to make 480 Volt 3 phase power. Besides, the Boiler-Dorm car has a Cat generator running in it, to power the three Steam Crew cars... A diesel will most likely appear now behind 4014 when traveling down the more steeply decending grades like Weber Canyon and Donner.

I don't like seeing that damned diesel back behind 4014, regardless of the fact it's not doing any pulling, it just looks WRONG!

My guess is to save 4014's very expensive brake shoes on the long descent.
