A Fourth of July we'll never forget. 🚂🇺🇸
Thank you to @UnionPacific and @nscorp for bringing Big Boy 4014 to Philadelphia.
And thank you to the more than 100,000 people who joined us in celebrating this historic occasion!

Over Fourth of July weekend, over 100,000 people joined Team NS and @UnionPacific to celebrate America’s 250 and experience Big Boy No. 4014 and The Bell No. 1776 at one of the tour’s most historic stops: https://t.co/2KBQRnppvK
CEO Mark George and Union Pacific CEO Jim Vena took the stage at the America250 Block Party to reflect on the role railroads have played in building this great nation, and the opportunity ahead to build what comes next.
Alongside our railroaders, customers, community leaders, and railfans, we celebrated two days in the birthplace of American independence.
More than a celebration of history, this weekend was a visible example of what’s possible when two railroads come together—connecting communities, strengthening supply chains, and building for the future.
Union Pacific’s legendary Big Boy #UP4014 took center stage in Philadelphia on the Fourth of July as tens of thousands gathered for the #America250 Block Party with @nscorp, commemorating the nation’s 250th anniversary. https://t.co/64syhGmkBd
250 years ago, Philadelphia’s waterfront stood at the heart of a new nation.
Today, PhilaPort proudly carries that tradition forward, connecting American businesses to markets around the world and keeping commerce moving every day.
As our nation marks this historic milestone, we wish everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July. 🇺🇸

Every shipment moving through The Port of Philadelphia has a destination, and sometimes that destination has the potential to change lives.
These specialized cyclotrons moved through #PhilaPort's Tioga Marine Terminal before arriving at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, where they will help expand access to advanced cancer treatment for patients across the region.
Congratulations to @PennMedicine and everyone involved in making this remarkable project a reality.
#ShipPhillyFirst
We just lowered two brand-new cyclotrons into Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, officially bringing proton therapy to PPMC and expanding access to this lifesaving care.
Watch the delivery! 👇
