Next Monday afternoon, Union Pacific's No. 4014 will be in Strasburg at the Monroe street crossing. I've never seen the locomotive but it sounds pretty impressive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Pacific_4014

It is supposed to arrive around 15:45. I'll probably get there at least an hour early.

It will be in Greeley at the 10th Street crossing two days later, arriving at 12:45.
