Big Boy Train Makes Historic Cross-Country Run

Big Boy, the biggest steam locomotive still running, just rolled through Pennsylvania for the first time ever—part of a coast-to-coast tour celebrating America’s 250th birthday.

A living piece of history, it’s drawing crowds nationwide, proving that even in our tech-driven world, these mechanical giants still command awe.
