Union Pacific northerns

I have to say I don't understand why so much attention is paid to Union Pacific! Rivarossi produced Big Boys, Challengers and Northerns. Then Athearn made a Challenger and Trix a Big Boy! Bowser has both a BB and Challenger! These manufacturer's have divided up an already small market for these locos and left many great locomotives undeveloped. <br /> <br />You U.P. guys have got it made! Try the second transcontinental, the Northern Pacific, the only semi accurate model offered is IHC's USRA 0-8-0 for the N.P. If I wanted to be totally accurate with N.P., I would need to buy lots of Brass and/or ba***he bejeebbers out of a lot of kits and RTR stuff. <br /> <br />The same holds true for most every other road, unless they are heavy users of USRA locos.
