Sounds and looks like there is a diesel running in the middle machine shop car ( you can hear it, can see the fuel tanks, and can see what looks to be a radiator cut out ). What is this for ? Why have an engine in this work car ?
Nice stuff, really neat shot through the two derailed locos!
Good catch Colby
I can't see this many freight trains in my country.
I know it has been a while, but what is that black and green loco in the background, top right?
A former Burlington Northern GP39-2
The cab looks kinda like a gevo from the side.
That's was a awsome day expect you amd humidity XD
Awesome
Thanh you very much

Nice to see modern video for a rail legend.
Excellent big train
Why does 4014’s whistle sound different, louder, Then a few years ago? Was it replaced?
@@redlight722 As far as I’m aware, it’s had the same whistle since it’s been put back into operation, which is a Hancock Long Bell 3 chime.
If I recall correctly it’s a slightly different whistle than when it first ran in 2019. The 844 was in possession of the original whistle for 4014 from before restoration (not entirely sure how true that is), but they swapped it back to being on 4014 in 2022 once they started the overhaul for 844.
First scene is old footage.
Amazing footage! That's actually the first time I've seen 4014's smoke deflector hoods in operation since it returned to service in 2019. I've seen footage of them on Big Boys from the steam era, but didn't know if they were still being used. Look pretty useful for tunnel situations and other stuff!
Nice to see the caboose bringing up the rear. Anything revenue making goods in those freight cars?
4:02 Good catch of Big Boy 4014 coming out of the tunnel with Stack hoods!
Great to see the Big Boy back on the main line this year!
awesome chase 👍
Love that rare shot of the collapsible smoke hood in use at 4:02. I'd seen it in only one other video of 4014. Edit: Only one other video at the time I posted this comment.
Does Union Pacific 4014 Needs a Diesel Helper for a Moment for this video.
the diesel is there for PTC only. 4014 can pull ALOT more than that.
@@bov634they put in ptc on the train itself so now it doesnt need a diesel engine at all!
Great shots you got there
Great catches awesome chase and nice video
Great catches awesome chase and capture and nice video
Is it going to go the entire tour without a diesel?
@@TrainFanFromCA I’d assume so
Most likely, considering it has a much smaller consist than usual
The ONLY reason a Diesel was in the consist was for PTC. It is a Requirement that all Trains have PTC and until very recently the 4014 didn't have it. It has since been retrofitted with PTC and no longer requires a Diesel. The additional hoppers and box cars are there for braking assistance to keep the wear off the 4014 brakes which are much more expensive to replace.
Realistically they might put helpers on for at least part of the Eastbound leg for dynamic braking over Donner Pass from Roseville to Sparks. For this part of the tour she's heading west over the Feather River Canyon with a 1% ruling grade. Donner's 2.4% descending grades are no joke and sometime on this tour she's supposedly hauling coaches. For safety's sake I wouldn't be surprised if they added helpers at least for that leg. Unless they use retainers between Norden and Truckee like SP did in the steam era.
@@chrisgill7824a diesel may still be added later. But this is a great change regardless.
I think Union Pacific has watched Starlight Express and have learned their lesson: "Soon the pistons will be humming, steam will have a second coming!" Have I mentioned that nobody can do it like a steam train? That is also what UP seems to have learned.
That a UP 3083 SD70ACe-T4
Could I use some of the footage? It's been DECKADES since we saw this guy without a Diesel.
looking for wheel slip
The diesel engine was used for dynamic braking and positive train control. They now have figured out how to put ptc on the steam engine.
I doubt the diesel is an assistant. This steamer burns 35 you fuel and uses perhaps 300 gallons of water per mile . A good fire and mucho power. The diesel is there for a breakdown if it happens to get the train off the main line, eh?
I thought big boy only needed helpers to supply electricity to power the coaches and maybe some dynamic breaking
No there is a passenger car that has a generator up owns
Just repeating history from 3985 pulling 143 cars…
15 hoppers, piece of cake for a Big Boy
Can actually hear it truly working for the first time. 🙌🔥
TOTALLY AWESOME LOCOMOTIVE!
For the first time since 1959 a big boy makes a trip over Sherman Hill on its own without diesels I think the King will be quite capable of pulling a passenger car as they were designed to haul freight trains on this line
Oh, I think that engine could pull a passenger car.
What a magnificent machine. I wonder what qualifications an engineer needed to be assigned a Big Boy back in the day.
Seniority; a lot of years on the job and tons of experience!
