Big Boy 4017
Title:  Big Boy 4017
Description:  UP 4017 rests under the pedestrian overpass across the yard in Laramie. Note that 4017 stil has the early front couple housing. By 1951, this had been replaced with a permanent fixture at the same time the brake cooling pipes on the front handrails were relocated behind the air-pump shield, on which the UP shield is mounted.

Pushed Under The Coal Tower
Title:  Pushed Under The Coal Tower
Description:  Union Pacific 4017 is shoved under the coaling tower by a shop switcher at Cheyenne. Steam switch engines were often used when moving the Big Boys around the yards and engine terminals, and today is one such occassion. 4017 was one of 6 Big Boys to operate in 1959, and one of 8 Big Boys to eventually be preserved. After retirement, the engine would be donated to the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay, Wisconsin in May of 1961. Obtained from Union Pacific Steam: Big Boy Portraits (Bush, Ehernberger)
