Great shot of us Craig! FYI our max speed was 20...

It is great seeing a Big Boy on the main line. I can't wait until it is on the main line under steam pulling a train.

Doesn't look like a Passenger Train to me, this is strange. Why wouldn't UP classify this as an Extra "X" or perhaps Special Movement? Quite a move nonetheless.

I wonder where SD70M #4014 is in all this. I thought it was supposed to participate in this move? Will it meet them at West Colton for the move to Cheyenne?

SD70M UP 4014 was involved in a mishap and received front end damage. It's currently at Jenks in N Little Rock, AR. Hopefully they will clean her up and give here a new coat of paint or something a little special for the move from W Colton-Cheyeene. Wonder what they will renumber her too once the BigBoy is up and running?

Hmm.. Interesting, do you know how bad the front end damage is? Would it be fixable in a months time? I really hope its able to attend the move as well.
