Chesapeake & Ohio H8 Allegheny class (2-6-6-6) articulated steam locomotive, the tallest, widest, heaviest steam engine ever created. By herself, the H8 weighed a staggering 724,500 lbs; with her fully loaded tender she topped out at earth shaking 1,066,100 lbs.

She’s built in a massive 10-wide, and yet she’s more than likely still in scale with most 8-wide MOCs. She’s fully track compatible, capable of navigating turns and points using a floating design inspired by Benn Coifman. If you’re attending Brickworld, she’ll be in attendance, too.

I’ve mentioned it on many other forums, Tony. This MOC is incredible and I am so looking forward to seeing it run at Brickworld 2009. :-) We’re just about a week from the event and I am so excited to see all of my old friends and hopefully make a few new ones. Again, great work on this MOC. There is so much to love here and I am looking very forward to taking it all in starting June 18th.

See ya there!
