4014 and train came through central MO on the old Mo Pac line between St Louis and Kansas City on August 31, 2021. I didn't take any still photos, just some movies on the digital camera, but Jordan's right. The only place just about anybody could see a Big Boy in action was either by video or through memories. Between Jefferson City, the MO state capital, and Knob Noster, about 90 miles west, you wouldn't believe the crowds. About any place someone could set up a camera, they did, even throught the various rainy periods that day. I'm glad to have a chance to see a live Big Boy, too. Thank you, Union Pacific!
