Big Boy is the name of the Union Pacific #4014 Steam Locomotive.  It was built in 1941, weighs 1.2 million pounds and is 132 feet long.  It was retired in 1961.  It underwent a multi-year restoration and was put back in service in 2019.  These photos were taken Wednesday 10/09/24 as it past through Bryan, Texas as part of its Heartland of America Tour.  Shot on a R5, using various lenses (RF 24-70 2.8, EF 70-200 2.8 and a RF 100-500).BB-4.jpgBB-1.jpgBB-3.jpgBB-2.jpgBB-5.jpg

Awesome, what a sight. I saw it in Pomona while it was here.

I'll bet it sounded great too, like a V-12 Allison.
