A couple questions: Is this art project going ahead for sure?  If so, when will it be complete and in place?  How will the crane be executed in this artwork?  Where will the base of the crane be?  How tall will this artwork be to the top of the crane boom?  Will the locomotive representation be full size?  Since the locomotive will have moving wheels, I assume it will also have moving rods and valve motion.  That would require a motor and a power train of gears, chains, levers, etc.   How much will this locomotive representation weigh?  How will it be stabilized against wind movement while suspended from a crane cable? In re-reading that article, I see that the locomotive will weigh several tons.  I assume it will swing in the wind.  It seems to me that a piece of this size will be quite a technical challenge to satisfy all of the safety concerns.  I am guessing that the price will be a lot higher than $25-million.
