The Summer of Big Boy isn't done just yet!

If you didn't get enough of the Big Boy hype this summer as Union Pacific 4014 traveled across the country or didn't get to come for the Big Boy Reunion this past June, come get your fill at Railfest 2026.

An original piece of F. Nelson Blount's Steamtown USA collection, Big Boy 4012 is on static display at Steamtown NHS year-round. Get up close and personal to 600 tons of steel and climb aboard into the cab with a park ranger. The cab of Big Boy will be open daily for tours all three days of Railfest from September 4-6.

Railfest 2026 will be the grand finale of the limited-edition Big Boy Locomotives Junior Ranger Book, available only at Steamtown NHS. Earn a unique badge and become an official Junior Ranger.
