  This country is in need of something positive and Ed and his crew and the awesome locomotive are providing that positivity. look at the crowds at each and every stop and train crossings. A big thank you goes out to Ed, the crew and of course, Big Boy!!

  &quot;Uncle Ed Dickens&quot; you&apos;re a bit dirty today! Good to see you again and taking the time out of your busy schedule to speak with the crowd and answering questions! <br>So sure you&apos;ve heard ALL these questions before, but you don&apos;t appear to be disturbed by them. Thanks &quot;Uncle&quot; for your dedicated service to UP. I know it&apos;s gonna happen eventually, but we don&apos;t want to think about you retiring anytime soon! Love You Much!

  Ed just seems<br>Like a personable, and great guy. He may not realize it, but he’s a true celebrity in our community. <br>I had the honor to see, feel, and hear Big Boy in Binghamton. It was incredible.

  I don’t mean this to sound morbid (I don’t). I truly believe this trip brought America together the same way 9/11 did. I camped out at crossings to see this thing, and just getting to know people, chit-chatting with this train bringing people together was something else. God bless America! And Godspeed to the 4014 crew on their journey!

  Was amazing to see 4012 and 4014 together, was worth the horrible sunburn and fighting the entire population of Scranton to get in.
