The Cubelodyte posted:My favorite has always been this big son of a bitch. Every time I go to the railroad museum in Sacramento I can easily spend an hour just staring at it. It's massive. It's a huge monument to American heavy industry and a time Real Men did Big Things. I love it. ^^^ That was probably my favourite engine in that museum. Picture fails to convey how loving imposing it is. Though not a trainspotter/"railfan" (), having grown up with the Rev'd Awdry books and having been to the National Railway Museum a few times, I have a thing for Gresley engines, my favourite of which is (inevitably?) the A4.

With links to their website.
