They cannot move it until the LA County Fair ends at the end of September. They will move it with track panels approx. 5900 feet across the parking lot to the Metrolink San Berdoo line north of where it is at. Due to to high frequency of Metrolink trains during the day, UP will cut in a switch after the last train, move the Big Boy, then take out the switch. The Bog Boy will move eastward the southward to Colton Yard, where they will drop the driving wheels to look at the bearings. Once they get her all back together, it is a slow 25 mph ride during the day only to Cheyanne.....
