Big Boy Song!

Posted on by Renee Hughes

“Roll On Big Boy” is a song written by Phil Brey with his son’s assistance about the Big Boy UP #4014 that returned to life in 2019 and is presently making its way around the middle of the U.S. throughout August 2021. The Big Boy can be seen rolling past The National Museum of Transportation, how appropriate, around 9:30 am on Monday, August 30, 2021. We are opening at 8:30 am that day and expect a crowd. Go here for the full article on the Big Boy song, its creator, and the process of writing well into his eighties. To only view the song’s video, go here. Thank you, Phil and Mark Brey!
