Big Boy can be found in Cheyenne's Holliday Park. It is 132 feet long and weighs 1.2 million pounds. Because of its enormous length, the frame is articulated to allow it to negotiate curves.
Big Boy 4004 took its final run on October 31, 1958. It is one of 8 remaining Big Boy locomotives on display in the United States.
I would prefer a photograph of yourself with Big Boy as proof of your visit, but alternatively you can email me the name of the person in whose memory it was placed here. You can find that person's name on a monument directly in front of the locomotive.
