That is a very impressive amount of hardware on the front of that engine.

Very nice! 12 drivers....bet this beast was neat to watch in action. Hey Mr. Union Pacific, could this be your next restoration project after the Big Boy?

Too bad this engine has a turning radius WAY too long for today's curves. It has been reported that UP can't get it out of where is it parked because of the small radii in the yard. Curves on the main line are too restrictive also. there was a limited territory where this engine operated because of such restrictions. Would be a GREAT resto project!!! Nice pic!!
