Big Boy 4014 at Buried Barrel Hard Cider - A Historic Pass-By Event

This is not just any train. Big Boy 4014 is the largest operating steam locomotive in the world, and this summer marks its historic journey to the East Coast as part of a special coast-to-coast tour celebrating America's 250th Birthday! Seeing it in motion is the kind of experience that sticks with you. The sound, the power, the sheer presence of it...it's something you feel as much as you see.

 

Buried Barrel will open the taproom at 10:30AM, giving you plenty of time to grab a drink, find your spot, and settle in. There will be a food truck onsite as well!

 

The train is scheduled to depart Silver Spring around 12PM, and it will pass by the cidery shortly after on its way toward the Genesee River Arch Bridge in Letchworth State Park.

 

Timing can vary slightly, so we recommend arriving early.

 

*NOTE* the train will NOT stop, it will be passing by.

 

PARKING NOTES:
Parking will be available on-site, but we expect a strong turnout for this rare event. Please be patient, follow any posted directions, and be RESPECTFUL of neighboring properties and roadways. Carpooling is encouraged if you can swing it.

 

BYOC: Bring Your Own Chair | This event is family-friendly.
