Just for fun.
A real locomotive that was never employed by this defunct railroad. I did see the real
one on tour, pulling a Union Pacific business train. It seemed to be the size of a small
freighter, and the gap in the middle is to permit a hinged joint, on the real thing, to
bend in the middle whilst traversing curves and points.
Apparently it was a real fuel hog and was retired after a few years
