Be patient please and trust us when we say, you'll be VERY surprised when you hear it." Next post - "The cab of what our surprise might be." (posted a pic of the cab of 4014) Comment posted: Margaret Monroe Not a rumor, Trains Magazine Newswire said today (Fri., Dec. 7, 2012) that: "Company spokesman Mark Davis told Trains NewsWire Friday that the company has been approached by and is working with a third party interested in restoring and operating a Big Boy. He said the railroad is evaluating the condition of preserved UP Big Boy locomotives and that it believes two might be available for restoration. Davis declined to name the other party or give a timeline for the project." Raymond
