I may try to see it on its trip home. A few years back, we were driving I80 and saw puffs of smoke north of us and figured it was a steam engine. We stopped in Kearney, NE where it also stopped. Not Big Boy but a “Challenger type” with old UP cars on a tour. It was a big engine. And to think Big Boy is even 12 feet longer..

I got to Hornell by 12:30 PM for BigBoy''s 2PM arrival- would have needed to camp out there the night before to get near the track! Couldn't see much through about 250 feet of humanity.
My son had a better idea. He went to Waverly where BigBoy spent an undisplayed night and found a good spot on the train's route to Owego. He got immersed in steam as it passed about 10 feet from him!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
