Here's the Biggest Steam Engine in the World Going on a Test Run For the First Time in Nearly 60 Years - Weighing in at over a million pounds producing 6,300 horsepower

Union Pacific 4014, also known as the one of the only 25 Big Boys ever built and only eight still in existence, is now officially the only one running in the world. Earlier we heard it blow its whistle for the first time since 1962, and yesterday evening it went for its first test run under its own power for the first time in 57 years. And weighing in at over a million pounds, it is now officially the largest running steam engine in the world.
