Union Pacific’s Big Boy No. 4014 Westward Bound Tour Schedule and Stops

The Union Pacific Railroad’s Big Boy No. 4014 Westward Bound Tour is making its way through Nevada, with its first stop in Wells and upcoming stops in Sparks, Truckee, and Colfax. The Big Boy No. 4014 is the largest operating steam locomotive in the world, and it is sure to draw crowds wherever it goes.

Unfortunately, the stop in Sparks has been cancelled due to a track issue that has delayed the Big Boy in Roseville. However, the tour will continue on to Truckee and Colfax as scheduled.

The public stops along the tour offer a unique opportunity for train enthusiasts and history buffs to experience the Union Pacific Rail Car, a restored baggage car that now serves as a traveling history museum. Visitors can learn about the history of railroading through sounds, images, and interactive technology.
