Twenty-five huge "Big Boys" were built for the Union Pacific Railroad and operated between Ogden, Utah and Cheyenne, Wyo.
Big Boy No. 4014 was delivered to the Union Pacific in December 1941 and was retired exactly 20 years later, having traveled 1,659,564 km in its 20 years of service.
Union Pacific repurchased No. 4014 from the RailGiants Museum in Pomona, California in 2013 and relocated it to Cheyenne to begin a multi-year restoration process. It returned to service in May 2019 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the completion of the transcontinental railroa

I don't care about trains and don't really know how I ended up here. But THAT thing is beautiful looking.
So iv been a avid Rivarossi collector for many years, I believe I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 80+ Rivarossi locomotives..back in the 70s 80s and early 90s, these locomotives were considered the elite HO brand to go to.. these were the locomotives at hobby shops that were behind the glass in caes..there was really no competition back then, aside from the cheaper manufacturers like bachman and lifelike...Brass was available but very expensive..these locomotives had brass and metal gears, and the fact that a locomotive 40 plus years old can still run today with some cleaning and lubrication tells you how well they were built..not many manufacturers have built locomotives that were as robust as the Rivarossi brand..a message to hornby/ the Rivarossi name meant dependability back in the day, it meant quality, back then gears where made on watchman's lathes by hand. The mould's for a lot of these locomotives where also very expensive to reproduce..and no offense to hornby but your pretty much using the same mould that was used 50 years ago..I'm happy that you kept the name rivarossi and are producing locomotives under the Rivarossi name..I assume because you know that name has a the following. Please keep up the good work, and remember your roots where that name came from. Business is business i get it..but there is still room for pride.. you have produced a nice locomotive..keep up the good work..
My little girl has been asking for a trainset for months. She will be getting her first Hornby, the Santa Express, which I am sure she will absolutely love.
£478.49 for that? You're having a giraffe? Where are the turned brass fittings? Are those plastic handrails I see?
Mind you it a large locomotive. And it the cheapest new big boy on the market. But it a retooled of an old red box rivarossi big boy, so yeah
@@gamerfan8445 Looks like they made an error with the price on the website. It's gone down to £379.95 now.
@@Poliss95 okay that sounds better.
So,they finnaly done it,made a model of bigboy for the british model railroaders to enjoy,Sam please review this monster. So you can enjoy what most American model railroaders love.
That would look awesome on my layout..
It shouldn't have the cooling coils on the pilot deck, as those were removed by the early 1950's. Also, it's tooling is almost 50 years old. Compared to the models produced by Mike's Train House, Broadway Limited, and Athearn Genesis, it is crude.
I finally got mine today, and it is my prize possession.
OMG big boy my favorite train has been released welp I hope I'll get one for Christmas
Some model! Looks almost comically huge in the English countryside scenery
I have always wanted one of these. Just awesome
For a model of this price some of the details are appaling, the safety valves with flash lines, for this price what extra cost to put in turned brass as on the old Triang Hornby models, superb model ruined by poor detail
What an absolute legend
To be fair it a old rivarossi retooled, and it the cheapest big boy for sell in the us
You realise it's Rivarossi, right?
Lol wait until you see the prices for Broadway limited or tric big boy $700 to $1200 for a big boy this is the cheap model for those who want a cheap big boy and can't afford the high end ones. This made me laugh though
Well, I have to agree with you sir. I had hoped they’d improve the quality and detail at least on the rods and linkage since I can add or change the rest fairly easy like the rest of us. So sad.
Now that's what you call a big boy model locomotive
Nice video and locomotive
i already have it, i got it back in 2019
How much did it cost then?
@@Poliss95 he brought a different company big boy
@@Poliss95 the one i got was nearly 400£ special/limited edition of 1000 models... I got mine from amazon.
It’s huge
Loco looks nice... but maybe it's time to retire this layout Hornby? Maybe something that is a bit more adaptable and realistic? Maybe even multiple dioramas (steam countryside, modern image and ambiguous). Maybe one for playtrains? Maybe something that can compliment a range of new, updated and slightly more realistic scenery items (and not the same station platforms and trees we've seen for the past 20-40 years?)
You can do alot better to present your products, your catalogue photography shows this. I remember being so inspired by some of those dioramas you put out in the 2006 edition. So lets start to push! You got this king.
Also to add... it would make good content for the youtube. Getting people involved in a new layout, step-by-step behind the construction of a new diorama. Teaching people what is involved in a new large-scale layout.
@@littlemaster22 the company who make the Hornby layouts called Corporate Layouts have some other great layout designs in their portfolio they could build. You might be right in suggesting that they should make some relevant more realistic layouts.
@@bentullett6068 Yh for sure. (Btw I'm not hating on "Corporate Layouts". Even the "Hogwarts" layout shown in this video is cool in its own right.)
But you could also have a layout spanning the entire circumference of the exhibition room, and have more range to showoff their locomotives. More expressive vegetation, topography, high-speed run-ups. Gentle curves and interesting junctions/yards. Take a look at how Bachmann/Marklin/Rapido show their stuff in context :). If we want to preach to the unconverted, we need to spark their imagination right?
@@littlemaster22 i can't understand why they can't use the Hornby museum layout for demonstrating new locomotives and rolling stock especially when it isn't open. That layout was built by corporate layouts but is (A) ten times bigger (B) just as detailed (C) the Hornby offices are literally next door to the museum
@@bentullett6068 valid point
Katie Pollock
I think Sam’s trains bought one before or am I wrong
This locomotive is the biggest one in the world
Can’t wait to get my hands on it
The big boy 4014 looks a superb model ,but perhaps just out of my reach.
Does it already have an nrma complient decoder inside
Will the dc variant work with basic Hornby train sets?
A Figure and lighted Number Board Lights would have been good
Done
I’m planning to restore the 3977
must have that locomotive.
I recommend to get a second hand rivarossi one. They are cheaper and you still getting the same thing.
@@gamerfan8445 you can't garenty it'll be compatible with OO gadge though.
@@njfox3305 it compatible with OO scale . It just going to odd because it H0 scale.
@@gamerfan8445 oh thats ok then
@@njfox3305 yea. It just going to look odd
And for 400£??!! That's almost as good as the American Flying Scotsman!
Looking really good, but I have one question. Is the gap between loco and tender adjustable , cause it looks a bit wide, a bit closer would look nicer. Best regards, Martin
Yes I've got one and it can go on 2nd radius
0:48
when do these come out
Will this be avalible all year.
Is this available in Australia?
Not very good fit and finish on show there. Poor cab glazing with really crude frames, misaligned number boards, incomplete paint on the firebox, flash lines on multiple moulded details. I suppose you get what you pay for and this is the low budget model of Big Boy out there, but this poor quality on show really does detract.
It sad that Broadway limited made a beautiful and strong 2-10-4 for $400. While hornby, well
@@gamerfan8445 Agreed. Though it must be conceeded that this model is half the price of the other Big Boy models it competes with. The trouble is that this model isn't half the model that they are. I'd say the more expensive models are actually better value for money simply because you get so much more model and features for your money.
@@Simon-Davis true, Big boys cost around $600 new, and hornby is half that. My opinion I don’t really care how detailed it is, but how strong it is, and don’t have any problems like the Hornby 9f have.
Looks good but not for me .Enjoyed the video though.
What is the guhe
