Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 Parts

Own your own piece of authentic railroad steam locomotive history.

Historical keepsakes of the world-famous Union Pacific Big Boy locomotive No. 4014 are offered for sale exclusively by the RailGiants Store.

Union Pacific successfully completed restoration of this steam locomotive in 2019, which included conversion from a coal fire to an oil burning firebox and replacement of numerous sections.

You can own a mechanical portion of the coal fired Big Boy No. 4014, as configured when RailGiants Train Museum received it in 1962, containing its elements when last utilized in freight revenue service in 1959.

RailGiants acquired most of the parts Union Pacific removed during the restoration project. We have different types of parts. We are uncertain of everything we have. But as we go further into the layers, we may discover a few surprises, and include other parts for sale.

Supplies are limited. When they’re gone, they’re gone.
