UP 4014
Title:  UP 4014
Description:  About 35 minutes later, people began streaming into town, and the finally, the moment we had waited for all day had arrived; the Big Boy stormed into Papineau bound for Villa Grove. I saw this locomotive twice back when it was on its first tour in 2019 in Iowa and Minnesota. It was just as captivating this time as it was the last time.

UP 4014
Title:  UP 4014
Description:  We had planned on stopping Watseka to see the locomotive as it was on display in town for a short time, but Watseka had grown about 10 times its population and by the time we would be able to find a place to park, the locomotive would already be on its way south again. So, we jumped it to Woodland where we caught PG3SL again. Woodland had probably quadrupled in size as well, but at least we were able to find parking here.
