Agreed…
Along with the UP 9000 series:
Holly cow!. A 4-12-2? I can’t tell. Are the Drive wheels separated so it can negotiate corners?
Union Pacific 9000 on public display in Pomona, CA.
This giant is the last surviving example of a 4-12-2, 3 cylinder
non articulated steam engine.
Hope this helps…
I would like to build some models of the bigger Diesels of today too. I live right near the BNSF main line to the Dakotas and the Northwest and those bigger road diesels are so impressive! I have been collecting drawings and photos to scratch one, but would sure pop for a good kit if someone offered it.
The company I work for is going to build some BNSF locos next year. Right now we are starting a 200 unit CSX contract.
Don,
I’ll post some pics of what we’re working on tonight. Maybe I can sneak some close ups for your scratch building efforts. Pretty much we’re working on GP40’s and some new model MBTA’S (Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority) at the moment. Also some rebuilds.
Here ya go.

If you want some close ups of the trucks, cooling fans etc. for your scratch build, let me know. I’ll see what I can get.
