[QUOTE="Bluvette75, post: 162256, member: 3902"] Yes I can add more detail. The first pic is of Big Boy 4012 which is an Accucraft brass model in 1/32 scale. It weighs about 35lbs (combined engine and tender). The second pic is Big Boy 4014 which is a die cast model in 1/29 scale and weighs about 75lbs (combined engine and tender). It is mounted to the 2x6 you see under it with the wheels just slightly elevated above the tracks. With a turn of the dial on the controller the 16 drive wheels come to life, along with the lights and sound system. Both models shown run on the same scale track. Had anyone been at Supertrain late Saturday or Sunday morning I had 4012 running on the Rocky Mountain Garden Railroad Society's layout pulling the money train (donations to children's hospital). 4014 is the one being restored to operation and is almost complete. It will be leaving Cheyenne next Saturday 04 May double heading with UP's Northern locomotive #844 going to Ogden, Utah arriving 09 May. If you want to know more about it you can join Union Pacific's Facebook page plus view some videos on YouTube. [/QUOTE]
