It's Steamy Sunday here on the Blog on a double digit day! 😁 The Union Pacific Big Boy locomotive 4014, has been on a trip across the country to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States. It is on it's way back home to Cheyenne Wyoming after having completed it's east coast run. I was able to capture this image of it as it was passing through Grantville Kansas on it's way to Topeka for a scheduled stop. I had to take this image in the rain. It's an incredible sight to see though, such a huge locomotive, a 4-8-8-4 wheel arrangement, basically 2 engines put together under one boiler and articulated in the middle to help get around curves.
