Big Boy Returns to Fostoria | Toledo News

Union Pacific’s legendary Big Boy steam locomotive—America’s largest operating steam engine—is rolling into Fostoria, Ohio, for a full-day public display, drawing rail fans from near and far. To sweeten the deal, a local Sheetz in Fremont is offering $2.50/gallon gas all day. This extended stop, after previous ultra-short visits, promises even bigger crowds for “Train City USA.” The historic engine, on a coast-to-coast tour celebrating the nation’s 250th anniversary, hasn’t been in the Ohio Valley since 1941. Parking is at the Fostoria Automotive Distribution Center—with a reminder to relocate cars afterward—and a Mini Rail Fest with food and vendors adds to the festivities.
