On the morning of June 9th, Union Pacific’s Big Boy 4014 rolled through Erie. It made a stop near the Lake Shore Railway Museum in North East, but people all across Erie County were following it and taking various pictures and videos.
For those who don’t know, the Big Boy 4014 is the largest operating steam locomotive. It was built in 1941, is 1.2 million pounds, and 133 feet long.
In case you missed it, here is the video of Big Boy in motion through Erie on our Facebook Page:
