Is it looking to be electrified? Sorry, bad joke.
Is there a story about Big Boy? I seriously don't know, except of course knowing that (coal fired) steam engines are part of our heritage.
I must be getting old. I thought it was gonna be a Azar's Big Boy :)

I think OP means 9/6.
Union Pacific still operates two large steam engines and they tour them around the country every summer..Quote:

They've also got a two letter domain... that's cool and unusual. I figured "up.com" was some sort of marketing engine hype.
Yeah, this sounds like a cool event. I've been on the Georgetown Railroad. Love looking down into the railyard as I pass it on I-70.
Can we take trips, either before and into the station, or after and out of the station? Or is it all for show?
Here's the video beast took last time it was in town.

I'm thinking Denver is going to be annoyingly crowded, although the full day event has more activities.
There are a few other stops within comfortable driving distance.
