Union Pacific 4-8-8-4 ALCO # 4012
A brisk Winter chill shares the company of Union Pacific's Big Boy #4012 as the 1.2 million pound giant sits poised in the yard awaiting her next assingment. The Turbines have taken the thunder from these magnificent engines, followed later by the likes of the UP DD40X Centennials. It's unlikely she'll be called to service anytime soon. This, my UP steam contribution as DD40X #6936 tours the West in '08. UP #4012, compliments of UP. Lighting and smoke effect compliments of Lerro Productions.

Yeah, the tender van matched the requirement of this loco.
The Triplex one is even huge, but due to some problem in the boiler, the Triplex couldn't attain the necessary speed, but tat was the only powerful 8.5k HP steam loco ever made in history.
