A digital program covering the inaugural run of Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 between Cheyenne and Ogden following its restoration back to service in May 2019 will be presented by Alex Mayes. The program begins with images of regular service UP trains in Wyoming and Utah taken while scouting for locations prior to the 4014’s first run, and then the 4014’s departure from Cheyenne on May 4th. Many scenes of the 4014 double heading with UP 4-8-4 No. 844 across Wyoming and Utah on the first run since the overhaul are included.
Refreshments will be served, as usual. If you are unable to join us in person, please join us on Zoom with the information below. We hope to see you there!
COVER PHOTO: This photo was taken on the third day of its inaugural run, May 6, 2019, which went from Rock Springs to Evanston, WY. Union Pacific 4-8-4 No. 844 was also in the consist. This photo was taken as the steam special passed through Granger, WY at 6:18 AM. The temperature was 35 degrees, which produced huge plumes of steam from both the 4014 and the 844. Photo and data by Alex Mayes.
