The Big Boys are awesome! My Grandpa retired from the UP as a Conductor
Big Boy 4014 is on tour, steaming from Cedar Falls IA to Rochelle IL today (Friday).
We’re going to watch it, railside, somewhere west of Sterling IL, then leap-frog it and catch it again before it gets to Rochelle.
We’re taking my 94yr old uncle along on the ride to watch BB, he was a train lover long before I was.
