April 10, 2024 - Union Pacific released the schedule for the Big Boy, or at least part of the summer schedule on their Facebook page, Union Pacific Steam Club.
We would like to thank Union Pacific and especially Ed Dickens and the steam crew in Cheyenne who make these fabulous trips happen. THANKS!!! WOW!!
We have been scrambling to get a video out on the schedule, or at least what we know of it, and it looks like a fantastic July trip for the Big Boy, 4014. There will be a second trip in the fall as well, more on that as we know more.
This is the best schedule we can construct based on the information released on the Union Pacific Steam Club, mixed with a bit of rumor and mostly common sense with a bit of history tossed in. We will repost information as it becomes available.
We've assembled some footage and photos of the route that we hope will help you figure out where you may want to see the locomotive this July. Watch here for more videos as they become available. We will update you as soon as we have a better schedule! AND SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss anything...

Wife and I grew up in LA County near Pomona, I marveled at the Big Boy as a teenager and our sons all had an opportunity to see it. After it was restored the wife and I rode the "Rail Giants" excursion 10/19/2019 headed by the Big Boy. I hope that our Granddaughter, Grandson and Great Grandchildren may be able to see it in Salt Lake City or Ogden since the live close by. Found your channel looking for railfan channels

I'm more of a Challenger fan, really enjoyed seeing it some years ago. Still sad that UP saw fit to rid itself of so much of its steam heritage. At least they did not simply scrap the other locos... hoping the new owners really do have the means to repair and restore.. Nice video you two👍👍. Well done mix of new information and historical images/video. THANK YOU!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It came through Mo. a few years back & missed the opportunity to see this great steam locomotive. I do think that steam power is viable source. They put out less pol lution than one might think. A beautiful breathing piece of machinery that is functional & practical. This schedule is for the West this year. Can't win them all. Thanks for posting.

Living in SoCal, I'm glad I got my moments with seeing the engine during its first outing in 2019, since it hasn't returned yet. I made a mistake in Cajon Pass and was on a lower track from where it was, but it made for a cool shot. I saw it pulling into and leaving the Victorville Station and I got a perfect shot near my college, CSUSB.

We have it on very good authority that at some point soon they’re going to be taking 844 down to Denver. Probably not this summer but possibly in the fall? Possibly next year? But they really wanted to get that guy out and run it around a bit just to circulate the oil if you will.

Being nearly 7 years old, it was quite an experience. If the Challenger, which is in Cheyenne, according to what you have said, is the original one I definitely will make a trip to Cheyenne.

I have often wondered what the freight train engineers think/say/etc, when they see 844 or 4014 pass them out on the high iron. Do they secretly wish that they were at the throttle, like the rest of us? I have often said, "railroad engineers" are really just great big kids living their dream". So it must be even more so with those who drive steam locos. All of us who are "rail fans" are the ones who just never got to live that dream. Oh well. ;-)

I’ve been talking to a lot of people and picking some brains. A lot of this is speculation and as it turns out some of it is wrong. I’ll be making corrections as I go. In fact, I have an update going up in the morning with a few corrections and a little more detail. For the most part, however this is correct. the one big problem is I was assuming the train would be on display as would make sense, however, as it turns out, it will only have public displays in Ogden and Roseville. Unless any changes are made to the schedule, it will be off-limits everywhere else.

Pretty Disappointed by the schedule. I was excited they were FINALLY coming to Boise. But they canceled the trip to Boise yet again.

Same here. Well, it is still in the planning stage. The problem is traffic! There’s so much business going across the line that they just don’t want to risk time anything up with the big boy. When and if the traffic levels up to the Columbia river calmed down a bit, the trip is planned. It’s all set all of the stopping points schedules. Everything has been worked out, there’s just no opening in the traffic.

It’s coming to Texas and Arkansas in the fall. It has to stick to UP tracks so not a lot of opportunities to travel east.

@@ToyManTelevision couldnt up crew run her on other tracks? With maybe a local engineer for track knowledge in the cab, which is plenty big enough. Wanting own infrastructure is of course valid as it surely ads flexibility
