In Cheyenne, UP 4012 and another Big Boy rest in the shadow of the coaling tower. Cheyenne was one of the principal homes for the Big Boys, and so the yard was equipped with coal, water, and repair facilities, complete with a 126 turntable, just large enough to squeeze a Big Boy on with three feet of overhang on each end.
