Big Boy UP #4014, Ogden, UT
by admin on May.09, 2019, under Uncategorized
The latest effort by the UP Steam Team is UP’s #4014, Big Boy. And I got to be in Ogden, UT today to welcome her to town and essentially open the Spike150 celebration. If you want to see great images of the Big Boy and sister UP #844, particularly as they make their way from Cheyenne, WY to Ogden, UT, check out the UP Steam Club Facebook page.
The rest of my pics from the day are here. They’re mostly about the event and the sites of Ogden, particularly near Ogden’s Union Station (which houses the Utah State Railroad Museum, by the way).
#DONE.

All Aboard!
The rails of a railroad track are kept shiny on the top by the regular passage of trains. Thus, "To Shiny Rails" is the battle cry of my personal effort to keep railroading activities of all kinds available to as many people as possible. It's tantamount to exclaiming "Keep those trains a rollin'!". And with any luck at all, I'll personally be on as many of those trains as possible! To shiny rails, Jamie
