UP 4-8-4 #806 - Union Pacific
Title:  UP 4-8-4 #806 - Union Pacific
Description:  Long before the GP30 wore the number 806, this 1937 Alco-Schenectady built Northern loco did.

Specifics - FEF-1 class, 77" drivers, impressive 300 psi boiler pressure, 24.5x32" cylinders, engine weight of 460,640 lb, tractive effort of 63611 lb. The class was retired between 1954-61. unknown photographer

Topped Off And Ready For Service
Title:  Topped Off And Ready For Service
Description:  4005 rests in the engine terminal at Cheyenne. The Big Boy has just topped off on coal, and will have its tender filled with water for another westbound journey. The tender of each Big Boy was a behemoth of its own. Each one measured just over 47 feet long, and had a capacity for 56,000 pounds of coal and 24,000 gallons of water. A stoker engine and mechanical lubrication system were also located in the tender, directly behind the cab under the coal bunker. Despite this massive size, stops would still have to be made to complete the arduous journey over the Wasatch range. Obtained from Union Pacific Steam: Big Boy Portraits (Bush, Ehernberger)
