UP 4-8-8-4 #4012
Title:  UP 4-8-8-4 #4012
Description:  Beautiful action shot of a double header with UP Big Boy #4012 in the lead. No exact date was given. This loco now resides at the Steamtown USA Museum in Scranton, PA. John William photo. Lucas Connor (see comment below) believes this photo might be closer to 1956 since it appears to have been recently repaired and outshopped. Seems fairly good estimate. Thanks, Lucas!
