Union Pacific's Big Boy No. 4014 is doing its first-ever tour of the northeast in honor of America's 250th Birthday. Big Boy started its journey in Cheyenne, Wyoming on May 25th and will make stops in 14 states by July 29th. The locomotive is just one of 25 which were commissioned starting in 1941. Used to support the World War II effort, the trains typically operated from Utah to Wyoming, hauling heavy equipment. FOX News’ Jeff Flock gives an inside look.
