HO Scale: The largest Steam Loco in the world, scratch built by Andy Dubs, Switzerland

Union Pacifc was famous for their huge Locomotives, from Steam to Turbine and Diesel. UP = Union Pacific or Unlimited Power !
Different model manufacturers produced this particular steam loco in Z, N, HO, O and G scale.

Athearn Genesis made the Big Boy 4-8-8-4 in HO scale with sound (length = 47 cm). This was the starting point for the extra large loco.

UP Short Boy 4-8-4 (made from leftovers), Standard Big Boy 4-8-8-4 and Giant Triple Boy 4-8-8-8-4 - AD-08
top: Short Boy (single drivers), middle: Standard Big Boy, front: Giant Boy (triple drivers) - AD-09
from Big Boy to Giant Boy 4-8-8-8-4 like a Triplex Steam Loco w/2 Tenders (length incl. 2 Tenders = 73 cm) - AD-10
Yes, all models are running and even with sound !!
