Extra 4012 West |
| Description: |
Extra 4012 West rumbles through west from Green River with 102 cars on November 30, 1941. 4012 is making 20 miles per hour with the heavy train, just west of Green River. On the head end are some hoppers and gondolas, followed by a long string of reefers. The exact location is unknown, so feel free to comment if you might know.

Big Boy 4012 |
| Description: |
In Cheyenne, UP 4012 and another Big Boy rest in the shadow of the coaling tower. Cheyenne was one of the principal homes for the Big Boys, and so the yard was equipped with coal, water, and repair facilities, complete with a 126 turntable, just large enough to squeeze a Big Boy on with three feet of overhang on each end.

Big Boy 4012 |
| Description: |
UP 4012 rests in Rawlins. 4012 will become one of the 8 preserved Big Boys when it was donated to Steamtown, USA, then located in Bellows Falls. In 1984, Steamtown relocated to its current home in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Today, I am happy to say, the Big Boy sees fellow ALCOs from the Delaware-Lackawanna on a regular basis, including several RS-3s and and the only remaining C636, not to mention the other ALCO products owned by Steamtown.

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! |
