Steam Train Visit

Hosted by Historic Oroville Walking Tours

Let’s give this historic train a big welcome! Daniel Ballard will be there to provide the history and help Oroville celebrate this historic moment!

The Union Pacific Steam locomotive Big Boy 4104 will make a 30-minute Whistle Stop in Oroville on Thursday, July 11th at 2:15 pm at the Train Depot 2181 High St!
The world’s largest operating steam locomotive built to conquer mountains, will make 19 whistle-stops in five states this summer during its 2024 Westward Bound Tour from Wyoming to California.

The Union Pacific advises the public to stay back 25 feet when coming to see Big Boy.
