It's built from 2 kits, so I hope that's okay. A Roco M60 with an M60A2 turret on an intermountain 60' flatcar.

So me some heavy stuff (tanks, other railroad cars, etc.) on a flat.

Maybe not the biggest diesels for the time, but GP-38s were big enough for the MEC in the 1970s

Show me a big first generation diesel (1940s - 1950s)
