UP 4018
Title:  UP 4018
Description:  Going out with a bang! The final piece of equipment belonging to Museum of the American Railroad to be moved is UP 4018 Big Boy. A BNSF diesel is pulling 4018 along with nine tank cars for braking power to the new location in nearby Frisco. The GP38-2 powering the train to Frisco was originally delivered to Frisco in 1973. This move is the first time Big Boy has seen the main line since being parked at the museum in Fair Park 48 years ago in August 1965.
