Dry Gulch Railroad Blows Whistle For Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 traveling through Hershey

Witness an incredibly rare and historic moment in "The Sweetest Place on Earth"! As the legendary Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014—the world's largest operating steam locomotive—steamed through Hershey, Pennsylvania, it received a spectacular welcome. As the massive 1.2-million-pound locomotive neared the iconic smokestacks, Hersheypark's own Dry Gulch Railroad proudly sounded its whistle to greet the titan. The Dry Gulch Railroad is celebrating 65 years of operation in 2026 and remains one of the very few authentic, steam-powered amusement park railways operating in the United States. In this video, you'll hear the unique, historic echo of real steam power answering real steam power as the Big Boy passes directly by Hersheypark and ZooAmerica on its cross-country tour celebrating America's 250th anniversary.
