This lounge car, which includes an observation dome, is named after a Union Pacific employee who served passengers for several decades. This car may have been included in the train because the train was going to carry passengers for one segment.
Seen in Broughton, Ohio, during Big Boy Number 4014’s coast-to-coast tour to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary. Number 4014 is the world’s largest operating steam locomotive. This photo is one of a series from the event.
From the Union Pacific web site:
“Twenty-five Big Boys were commissioned exclusively for Union Pacific Railroad, the first of which was delivered in 1941. These massive locomotives were built to haul heavy equipment in support of the war effort, normally operating between Ogden, Utah, and Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Big Boys are 133 feet (41 m) long and weigh 1.2 million pounds (544,310 kg).
Due to their great length, the frames of the Big Boys are “hinged,” or articulated, to allow them to negotiate curves. They have a 4-8-8-4 wheel arrangement, which means they have four wheels on the leading set of “pilot” wheels to guide the engine; eight drivers on the first engine; another set of eight drivers on the second engine; and four wheels trailing that support the rear of the locomotive.
No. 4014 was retired in Dec. 1961 after traveling 1,031,205 miles (1,659,564 km). Union Pacific reacquired it … in 2013 and relocated it back to Cheyenne, Wyoming, for a multi-year restoration. It returned to service in May 2019 to celebrate the 150th Anniversary of the Transcontinental Railroad's Completion.”
This Big Boy was originally powered by coal but is now powered by fuel oil.
