4014 Big Boy News

Appears the Union Pacific will have the locomotive traveling places.

This probably won't be the only appearance. You may not want a ticket but the chance to see it may appeal to those within reasonable distances of Omaha and Boone, Iowa.

The UP will probably post the schedule from Cheyenne - Omaha - Cheyenne. I'm thinking Kimball, NE would offer good views.

If I could be in the area I'd try for a ticket. Alas...

Good News!
You could check with Shaun (http://prairieadventure.blogspot.com/) in Kimball, NE, he's blogger family.

Doubt they will make it to your area. Closest the UP comes to you is New Orleans and Memphis.

I follow his blog. I'm also thinking of a trip to Pawnee Buttes and Pine Bluffs, WY. Or further South on the Platte in NE where I have relatives. Ride the grub line, so to speak.

My sister is talking "road trip" to Council Bluffs and a museum visit.
