Ryan,



You are correct. I watched the video and it is the UP 4002 Big Boy.

The coal train was pretty cool

Coal trains are awesome to take in, in person... Since I work at the power company, I have been out to the power plant a few times, and to watch them unload the cars, plus the length of the whole train is something out of this world! I wish everyone had a chance to see them up close... If I go out there again, I will be sure to take pics. .
