Join me LIVE from Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, Pennsylvania, as I explore the legendary Union Pacific Big Boy 4012 while reflecting on its famous operating sister locomotive, Big Boy 4014.
Only 25 Big Boy steam locomotives were ever built, and just 8 survive today. Big Boy 4012 is one of those rare giants, preserved at Steamtown, while Big Boy 4014 made history by becoming the world's largest operating steam locomotive.
In this live tour, we will walk around the massive 4-8-8-4 Big Boy 4012, examine its incredible size and engineering, and explore the historic locomotives and exhibits inside Steamtown. This is a rare up-close look at one of the greatest achievements in American railroad history.
