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! |

Description: |
On display here at the Fairplex RailGiants Train Museum in Pomona California. This is the loco that UP bought to restore and will be riding the rails again in 2019 for Union Pacific's 150th Golden Spike anniversary in May. I'm unsure who took the photo as both Leo Caloiaandr Glenn H. Davis names are listed on the back. |
