Big Boy Rolls Through Lawrence | Lawrence News
Description
The legendary Big Boy steam locomotive, the largest still running anywhere, is rolling through Lawrence on a historic cross-country tour celebrating America’s 250th birthday. Built in 1941 and once logging over a million miles, this iconic engine paused in Kansas City before heading west—expected to slow near the old Union Pacific depot for a fleeting glimpse. Though no official stop is scheduled, train enthusiasts and curious locals have a chance to catch it passing through. After Lawrence, it’ll stop in Topeka before returning to Cheyenne, Wyoming, by July 29th—a nostalgic ride honoring America’s rail legacy.
