Big Boy Returns to Train City USA | Toledo News

The Big Boy, the world’s largest operating steam locomotive, is rolling into Fostoria, Ohio, for a full-day public showcase on July 14th — no tickets needed, just bring your enthusiasm. This historic train, on a coast-to-coast tour celebrating America’s 250th anniversary, is making one of only eight stops in Ohio and is drawing massive crowds to “Train City USA,” where three major rail lines converge. After a brief but popular June visit, fans are back in droves — and this time, they’ve got the whole afternoon to soak in railroading history. The locomotive’s journey through the Ohio Valley marks its first trip west of the Mississippi since 1941, adding even more excitement to Fostoria’s railfan legacy.
