Need to say many thanks to Sven. I am now the proud owner of a Big Boy 2024 with caboose after 10 years !!! Now the difficult decision, should I leave it untouched as it's never been touch of put it on the rail and enjoy it with the rest of my UP fleet.

Call me strange, but I buy trains to run them.... I don't own any rolling stock that hasn't been run on my modular layout.

Iโve seen 4014 in operation a number of times and it remains one of the coolest, most fantastic things Iโve ever seen. Iโm looking forward to seeing it again this year.

I just became part of an elite (and very lucky) group as new owner of a brass SP GS-4 Daylight #4449 steam locomotive. Absolutely stunning! After getting the loco to room temperature, I had to run it in tandem with its UP heritage counterpart. I personally want to thank Sven for giving me this opportunity to own such a fantastic piece of art! Great weekend from Colorado! -Tiest Attachments:
