Perhaps no other locomotive ever had a more appropriate name than the
legendary Union Pacific "Big Boy".
Measuring
an immense 132 feet long and weighing in at almost 1.2 million pounds,
the Big boy was the largest steam engine of all time and proudly
carried its descriptive monikor coined by an Alco shopworker. The
engine's unequaled size required that lighter rails be replaced,
turntables rebuilt, and curves realigned to accept the tremendous
overhang. But, the big Boy's value to the Union Pacific quickly
justified these expenses as the engine displayed its remarkable
strength when negotiating the notorious grades found on Sherman Hill
and elsewhere on the Union Pacific.
MTH is proud to bring to
life, in incredible detailed glory, the largest and heaviest O Gauge
steam locomotive ever constructed. Quality constructed of die-cast
metal, the RailKing Big Boy is meticulously adorned with detail and
sports a tremendous list of fantastic MTH features.
