“We’re talking about something that’s five decades beyond the end of its projected service life,” said Ed Dickens, senior manager of Heritage Fleet Operations.

“And while we’re making parts for 844, we’re making additional pieces for the Big Boy, locomotive No. 4014, and the Challenger, locomotive No. 3985.”

Good to hear the Steam program is still building any word on when 4014 gonna be operational? Also where did 3985 go?

3985 broke down several years ago. It's on hold until after 4014 is done, which I believe they are hoping to have completed in about three or so years.

Only about a year and a half. In truth, it will probably end up taking longer.

From what I gathered they want it done by the golden spike anniversary

3985 is in the Cheyenne, Wyoming, roundhouse waiting her turn. She needs a new firebox from what I've been told.
