UP 4-8-8-4 #4012 - "Big Boy" - Union Pacific |
Description: |
Built between 1941 and 1944, this locomotive worked the western ranges until retirement along with its brothers around 1961. Due to its size, it can take only 20º curves, something in short supply most places outside of the open western states. |
