What Era, Railroads, & Locomotives are you set on?

[Sumpter250]

A couple of years ago Colorado celebrated the annual tour of the state fair by bigwigs and staff the from Denver Post by bringing out the 4-8-8-4 from the railroad museum in Golden to head up the special train.

I was under the obviously mistaken impression that all of the 4-8-8-4s that went to museums, had been permanently disabled, by directive from the Union Pacific RR. Is there actually a "BigBoy" still capable of steaming ??!!!
