History was made this morning May 4th, 2019, as Big Boy No. 4014 and Living Legend No. 844 made their way to Ogden, Utah to celebrate 150 years of the Transcontinental Railroad.
Please grab a snack, sit back and relax, and watch this old black and white video, from back in the day, of Ol' Big Boy as it leaves Cheyenne one last time.
25 Big Boys were built to haul freight over the Wasatch mountains between Green River, Wy. and Ogden, Utah. Only eight remain. Two of those can be seen in Cheyenne.
