Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 Through Red Desert, Wyoming

In this video, we continue East following Big Boy 4014 and the Headin' Home Tour. We follow the train along Lincoln highway 30, then later on down the road near Tipton Junction, where the train pauses quickly to let some East and Westbound trains go around. We finish off at Red Desert, the former siding and wreck sight of the only major Big Boy derailment. For more on the 1953 wreck of Big Boy 4005, feel free to check out the Forney Museum of Transportation's website at www.forneymuseu...
