Big boys never ran 80 mph. They were designed for that top speed to ensure minimal chance of parts failure at their regular operating speeds of 40-60 mph.
Folks, remember that the bullet trains that we all take for granted would not exist if it were not for these beautiful pieces of engineering. Absolutely gorgeous machine.
That is a great video. Several years ago, we had the scanner on chasing the SP 4449 over Stevens Pass. The heat from the boiler and firebox drove the hotbox detectors nuts.
Seems interesting that it is only 300 tons under its limit on this grade. it seems to be pulling it so effortlessly. is that based on starting from a dead stop?
Wow 😮 this types of locomotive used in the year 70's & 80's amazing👍 I like & love old locomotive & present so beautiful seen 👍👌👏👏 I am from India 🇮🇳 city of pulse Hyderabad Y Y Y CLASSIFIED ADS
Tiếng còi tàu hét vang cả đoàn tàu lao nhanh về phía trước sân ga , phun lên làn khói trắng về phía sau ôi thật đẹp làm sao, như đưa người thân xa trở về quê nhà !
They’d already been in Colorado for several days, and it’s not like they’re gonna stop at Speer to switch the flag over for about 20 min of running in Wyoming.
The UP steam crew does do a very good job at keeping the boiler pressure right around 298-300 psi without lifting the safeties. However, in some instances, safeties lifting is inevitable, like when you’re closing the throttle partially after accelerating a decent sized train up to cruising speed.

Several years ago a video like this was only a dream. Thank you for now capturing the reality and sharing it.
I would like to ride on Big Boy 4014! Love trains! 🚂
Most beautiful locomotive I ever saw. Very impressed with this monster.
Отличное видео. И спасибо тем кто работает на нем и обслуживает этот легендарный локомотив💪👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💯💥💥💥
40 miles an hour looks really impressive for this Monster
@cg9952- Yeah! 1/4 mile ET, 25 minutes, trap speed 12 mph. All while pulling Mt Everest!
Put it at 2x speed and she’s going 80mph like the big boys did back in the Steam age

OMG! This is beautiful! Thank you for sharing. I love this locomotive!

Absolutely gorgeous machine.
I missed it coming through DFW, thanks for all the videos.
An American Sweetheart. She sat idle for 60 years and chose to never give up. Proud of you #UnionPacific.
Good grief....
Absolutely love this! Thank you so much! 🎉❤
Excellent pacing! Thanks for sharing!
Wow I really appreciate this video. Thank you so much. I don't think I could get tired of it. I can watch it over and over again 😀. 👍👏👏👏👏🚂 ❤️
G R E A T video !!!!
can't exactly imagine that is this monster in reality...
Aise engine Ko Dekhkar mujhe apna Bachpan Yad a Gaya purane Din Yad a gaye to 33 sal pahle Bharat Mein Chalte the Aisi engine
Que c est beau !! rien ne semble pouvoir arrêter cette beauté ... et quand le pilote actionne le sifflet pour prévenir c est a pleurer de joie .
Nice shots, looked like a fun chase!

One of the best Chase's ever, thanks for the ride. Provo railfan.
One of the Best Chase videos ive seen😊.i cant drive and shoot( kidding)
She's an absolute awesome piece of machinery. I enjoy watching her glide across the country side.
But I don't enjoy watching you feminizing him
Great video!
Great video to watch! Thanks
Watching a part of American history. So cool!
'Rocky Mountain Thunder"!
❤❤❤ I would love to take a ride!! LOVE this engine!
25:44 what scanner do you use
Seems interesting that it is only 300 tons under its limit on this grade. it seems to be pulling it so effortlessly. is that based on starting from a dead stop?
I think i answered my own question. the limit of 1600 tons is at 40mph. it could pull more but down at 20-25.
Correct. 10 mph tonnage rating over 1% grade is 4,800 tons.
That's big boy.
Bahut Achcha engine Hai Bhag se chalne wala aur badhiya chal raha Teji se

Heck yeah!
I wonder why Big Boy is flying the Wyoming state flag. Ed normally flies the flag of the state they are currently in.
' cause they were Anxious to get Home!😅

Beautiful and high quality images, which camera is used? Thanks.

Oh, wow! You don't see pressure relief valves go off very often!

I think myself lucky for riding in it in my childhood
PEOPLE! Big Boy. Is NOT a "she". His name isn't big girl. LOL 😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
That's what I be telling the others, feminism clouds can really mess up people's English humor
my friend, you are correct, they confirm it’s a “he” not a “she”
First pls pin
misread my calendar or would have been there darn
