Union Pacific’s historic Big Boy steam locomotive No. 4014 is touring the Union Pacific system throughout 2019 to commemorate the transcontinental railroad’s 150th anniversary.

The train will arrive at 100 E. Front St. in downtown Texarkana on Tuesday, November 12 at 11:30 a.m. and depart at 12:15 p.m.

The Big Boy’s return to the rails is the product of more than two years of meticulous restoration work by the Union Pacific Steam Team. No. 4014 is the world’s only operating Big Boy locomotive.

Due to the dynamic nature of these operations, running times and scheduled stops are subject to change. To see the latest schedule visit https://www.up.com/heritage/steam/schedule/index.htm
