how many "bigboys" do we have on this forum?

[Anonymous]

When I joined this forum I knew about big_boy_4005 but now I am seeing more members with similar names. How many are out there?

[Anonymous]

This is bigboy4015 [:D]

The nickname came from 2 different sides:
1. My favorite steamengine are UP´s Bigboys.
2. I´m 6ft 2in tall, and make Bodybuilding, my weight is about 240 lbs [:D].

So my nickname was logic: BIGBOY.

The 4015 is one of my two Trix models. I have also the 4013 but this was not possible when I register.

I use the 4018 becuase its the one I live near
although its a sad wreck of an engine to look at now

Ok you eastern boys can cry Allegheny all day long but you never ask any of us UP Bigboy nuts why we like them and not yours? I grew up in Dallas next to the UP mainline so all I saw was armour yellow and harbor mist grey all day everyday. My Grandpa was a member of the Age of Steam ... what is the biggest thing parked down there? Up's 4018 4-8-8-4 I saw it all the time I climbed in it rang its bell blew the 3 chime thats on the whistle tree and basically studied everything I could get my hands on that dealt with bigboys. when your 8 years old and you stand next to an iron wheel that is triple your height it has a heavy influence on you. If you want to point fingers or put in t a real complaint as to why your engine is not as well liked ask the railroads who didnt put a huge effort into marketing and filming them.

Why did they name it Allegheny and not Big Boy? Had they parked it next to a Big Boy they would of called it Allaweenie.
