Union Pacific Steam Club Update No. 5 - Apr. 10, 2019
From the UP Steam Team: We've been working hard out here making good progress. For the first time in 60 years a UP 4000 class locomotive has fire in its firebox in Cheyenne...an oil fire.
A fire was successfully lit April 9 in the firebox of the UP 4014, the crew is excited to undergo additional testing of the modified "oil conversion" for the Big Boy 4014.
May 9 and 10 Ceremonies to be Streamed Live via Facebook
Can't make it to Ogden or Promontory for the big events May 9 and 10? That's OK, we've got you covered
Union Pacific will be streaming both ceremonies live via the UP Facebook page, located at http://www.facebook.com/unionpacific. If you haven't already "liked" our Facebook page, do it today. You'll be notified as soon as the cameras start rolling.
We'll be including schedules for the May 9 and 10 events in future Steam Club emails.
