UP Big Boy rolls through Truckee California

On 7/14/2024 at about 6:10 PM, the Union Pacific Big Boy rolls through Truckee California. Due to a delay, the scheduled stop had to be canceled. However it did give me a chance to capture it as it rolled through.
I'm really sorry about the woman giving the bird at the start of the video, she a giving the bird to a helicopter overhead. While I could have cut that part out, I felt the context of the Big Boy arriving was important to keep in.

Why did that man lady give the finger!!!??? Rude!!!

[@BobDiaz123]

@arlingtontrains7 It was a woman who was angry at the helicopter overhead taking pictures; I assume because of the noise from the helicopter. The finger was being given to the helicopter.

Could not explain to my children watching this what the hand signal was for . 😠

[@BobDiaz123]

@vmobile890 Sorry about that. I was torn whether to keep it in or edit it out. I wanted to have the arrival of the train in the clip.

@@BobDiaz123 Not your fault. The finger lady was clueless, selfish and tacky. Showing her true colors. Great video otherwise! Too bad the Auburn delay prevented it from stopping for you guys.
