I have just finished my second revision, with more to come, of a UP BigBoy. I used the engine at the Museum of Transportation here in Saint Louis as a guide I still have some work to do on it, but here you go.




It is 7 1/2 track lengths and 8wide, the boiler is attached at the front drive wheels and the back truck. The front truck and the back drive wheels are connected by hinge joints to the wheels behind them. I will try to get more pics up later.
