I love how they put the narrow gauge up high and in a mountain scene here. Then the AC12 is coming out of a tunnel in the same mountain scene. Excellent work CSRM.

Excellent! "Big Boy" on rest.

@Andrew This is not a Big Boy, Those were 4-8-8-4's

This isn't a Big Boy; it's something more unusual.

Actually the Big Boy is a more unique locomotive then the AC-12 Cab Forward. UP have on 25 examples of the Big Boy where as the SP having 256 examples of cab forwards. Of course 4294 was the last one built and did not run long before being retired. CSRM has done an excellent job displaying this last of a breed locomotive.

This is more unique because of the position of the cab. The Big Boys still have their cabs at the rear, like pretty much every steamer except the camelbacks and the Cab Forwards.
