Big Boy Return to the Mainline. 6"wide x 7" tall. Running time, 2 hours.

In this jam-packed program, you'll see the Big Boy's return to the steam, followed by her epic doubleheader with 4-8-8-4 #844 from Cheyenne, Wyoming to Ogden, Utah and back!
If you like steam railroading action, that is BIG steam railroading action, then you'll want to watch this today!
