    Great Video of the run-bys! I liked the Elmhurst run-by. I took two of my Grandchildren to West Chicago on 27 July 2019 to see Big Boy. We had a great time looking at the engine and seeing the Union Pacific Experience exhibit.

    Thanks for recording this historic event for those of us among the expats of the Chicago area.

    I was at the County S crossing in Kenosha, WI, about 1.5 miles north of where you started the video. She was awe inspiring to see in person and feel the ground shake when she went by at a good clip (speed). I wish I can relive that day over and over again. Loved it

    Great video. That is me across from you in Elmhurst in the Northwestern hat at the box. An amazing day!

    What steam engines seem to delight in doing, setting off the hot box detectors! LOL

    2:35 Kind of reminds me of the old 1950's video of the Bigboy....except the diesel of course.

    How does the engine refuel itself along the route? Are there coal stations along the route?

      The 4014 was converted to oil burning during its restoration.

    Why do they always have a diesel unit behind it? Can't the big boy do it by itself?

    • @sailingmylifeaway
      @sailingmylifeaway 5 лет назад +1

      The diesel electric is providing electricity to all those passenger cars. Big boy produces no electricity. It was hauling freight back in the day. Actually, this train is quite light and small for an engine as massive as Big Boy.

      Does the diesel also provide dynamic braking if needed?
