Weighing in at 1.1 million pounds, this is the second tour since the locomotive was restored for 2019's "Great Race" tours, which celebrated the 150th anniversary of the transcontinental railroad's completion, following a retirement that spanned six decades.

"The Big Boy was delivered to Union Pacific in December 1941 and helped carry the nation through World War II," said Scott Moore, senior vice president – Corporate Relations and chief administrative officer. "It now serves as a reminder of our history and how rail is the backbone of America. The tour last year brought out about 1.1 million people from the communities we serve, and we cannot wait to share Big Boy again this summer."
