Sweet! I just got my BLI HO Big Boy last weekend. So awesome! I now have 844, 3977, and 4014. Still want to get 3985. These are so much fun to watch. Congrats on your new loco. It will fun to see running on your live show this Sunday. Hint hint.

😊😊.. Big Boy 🚂..J have model Big Boy Union Pacific for Rivarossii.

@Blue68Camaro Ай бұрын

I have Big Boy Number 4014 by Rivarossi. Very temperamental Locomotive. I have seen the real one several times running, unbelievable site to see. It was made primarily to haul coal over the Laramie pass in Wyoming.

That looks so good on your layout Dave! Love the puns and glad you like the package!

Gorgeous model... what a gift!!! Nice haul!

In the words of Napoleon Dynamite “LUCKY!” Looks great. 😊 I like steamers, and I might get a couple, but I’ll be when I get the big layout done. Whenever that’ll be.

@user-qy9mn6qi3i Ай бұрын

It's great to see a new addition of steam locomotives to your collection. Enjoy, it looks great. 🚂

@TimsBitsnPieces Ай бұрын

Dave, If you haven't noticed the front coupling is off to the side it needs to be moved to the centre again. It looks great going around your layout.

@ScottRails Ай бұрын

I think it's designed that way, so when it's not in use it looks tidier.

@LyntreeTown20132 Ай бұрын

an amazing locomotive cant wait to hear it in sound

What a great gift! It's nice to see a Big Boy other than 4014.

@YourLocalRailfan Ай бұрын

Also, the big boys were made to haul 200 car ore trains from the mines

@jimmd68 Ай бұрын

Pretty sure they were specifically designed to haul mainline freight originally over the Wasatch between Ogden, Utah, and Green River, Wyoming, and later used all the way to Cheyenne.

@YourLocalRailfan Ай бұрын

@@jimmd68 they were used for ore later around Cheyenne, I heard that was gonna be the locomotive class designation however an unknown employee wrote “Big Boy” on the front and they named the locomotive class that

@jimmd68 Ай бұрын

@@YourLocalRailfan I'm sure that's possible, but I've never seen or heard any evidence of that. Also, yes it was an Alco employee who wrote "Big Boy" on the front of the smokebox of #4000 and the name stuck. Pretty good name if you ask me!

@AirwolfCrazy Ай бұрын

Great gift! We'll now you have a good Tune-up-Tuesday project. Maybe a new intro with the Big Boy?

@theangelsmodellingandrailways Ай бұрын

That's an absolute beauty of a loco, need the curves to run them, which you have. Excellent stuff from Joe, nice stock too. A choice steam loco mate, you understand my passion for them now. All the best. Brian

Great video good luck with the big boy

@Parktonman Ай бұрын

Welcome to the Big Boy Club. 1,000,000 pounds of loco. There is still one running today. # 4014. I think there are 8 Big Boy's left. I have seen 4 of them. The closest to you would be at Scranton Pennsylvania, at Steamtown, about 5 1/2 hours from you. Big Boys were made for freight service. Enjoy! How long did it take you to get all those wheels on the track?

@ScottRails Ай бұрын

It was strangely easy to get the wheels on the track. Must be all that articulation.

@monsvillerailways5736 Ай бұрын

17:24 on the back set of wheels behind the steam piston, is that something hanging off that should be attached?

Just a bit of styrene from the mountain pass.

@Scott Rails, what is the minimum radius & maximum gradient on your layout? That G in fragile looks more like a "6"! It sounds like you moved from the UK to Canada. You mentioned points & sleepers. Are those the words they use in Canada, or do they usually use the "Yankee" terms for them?

@ScottRails Ай бұрын

Minimum radius is 18, but that's the inner loop I didn't run on this video. The two main outer loops are 28 and 30" I moved from Scotland to Canada. Sleepers and points is a British term.

@ScottRails Ай бұрын

Oh, and I have no inclines on this track.

Now I am happy, your Union Pacific contingent is now complete and I look forward to lots of video of the Big Boy running on the layout. I am busy building my own Big Boy on my channel but its still aways from finished especially as I am using cheap Chinese toy trains to build it. I am so glad you have this loco running on your track. Now get your passenger cars out and build the excursion consist that Big Boy pulls around today...kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sLCCe9Bly8DLmaM.html
