Remarks & Notes 
"Dedicated Crew" On a hot July day in 2019, two dedicated workers from the Big Boy's Mechanical Crew perform routine maintenance on one of the largest steam locomotives in North America. Despite the locomotive being on display in West Chicago for its 2019 tour, the crew remains hard at work, ensuring the legendary 'Big Boy' continues to run at its peak. The photo captures the intricate process of replacing worn parts and conducting essential upkeep on this iconic piece of American engineering. The heat of summer only adds to the intensity of the task, reflecting the unwavering commitment to preserving the power and history of this steam giant.
