The Big Engine

[knewsom]

I have a BLI Class A that I use, but the biggest that I own is a Akane 2-6-6-6. I don't run it though because it can not handle my curves.

2 H8 Alleghenies with an e and a T1 Texan. What is used the most, K4 Berkshire known to the C&O as a Big Mike and a 2-6-6-2 Mallet. Moven coal.

First off, I don't think anybody would need to maticulously detail a Trix Big Boy! Those things come prototype EXACT right out of the box.

Anyway, my biggest engine is my HO UP FEF-3 #844. Now if you mean big as in your favorite or most used locomotive, it'd be my HO Conrail SD50. It's the work-horse on my layout, doing everything from yard switching to pulling road freights.

In a recent MR, the editorial was about 'the big engine". What's your "big engine"? Is it that Trix Big Boy you just bought? Or is it the AC4400CW that pulls the fast freight through town? Tell us about your biggest engine.
