Chasing Big Boy 4014 Eastbound.
This is Day 20 of chasing Big Boy 4014 (World's Largest Steam Locomotive) on its Eastern part of the Coast-to-Coast Tour!

What a surprise, Reading 2102 decided to join us today. They both raced up a few grades. It was super loud!!

We will be following UP 4014 for the entire tour. Expect more content coming your way, videos will be published as soon as possible.
