Why the major manufacturers have failed to build a loco with this size drivers is beyond me... This configuration was very typical motive power for most of the railroads of the Appalachian regions -- the C&O's 2-8-0's, the N&W's 4-8-0's, the VGN's "Mikes", all operated to the very end of steam... It might be worth mentioning this in Bachmann's online forum at their website. I'd especially love to see an MB produced. My earliest childhood memory is of blowing the whistle on a VGN MB when I was 18-months old! ;)
