| The "Spike 150 Train" heads east through the Wasatch Mountains at Taggarts, Utah, May 12, 2019. "Big Boy" 4-8-8-4 leads the train! UP ordered twenty five of "Big Boy" locomotives between 1941 and 1944. The frame is “articulated” with two sets of driving wheels, perfect for negotiating tight mountain turns. 4014 was built in 1941. 4014 last steamed in 1959 and eventually was restored to operation, converted to run with oil and put in service specifically for use during the anniversary celebrations in 2019.
