Hey guys just if you were wondering bra5187 is the builder and opperator of this beautifully done Norfolk and Western Y6b. The craftsmanship is unbelievable! I cant even imagine the countless man hours it took in creating it, but it payed off BIG TIME! The most beautifulist Scale Model Llive Steam Engine that I have ever seen in my Life! Greatings from the United States.

[Den7Bass]

Beautiful craftsmanship.

[MrMiguelSR1]

[vettebecker]

Wish I had one for my 7.5 gauge layout. Very nice loco.

[GWR4079]

its a size of a 7/25" engine!

[globalintermodal]

correct!!

[GWR4079]

no problem :)

[Pac3steel]

Far too cool.

Great loco, cool video.

[STEELHORSE1975]

wet dream lol is it live steam???

[misshydro]

its is.. there video of it running...

[PierreProcter]

I've driven one half a size bigger - it's 7.25" (184mm) gauge and is just down the road from my house. I don't own it and didn't build it - its owner has built several large US locos in this gauge and they're all masterpieces. Very enjoyable to drive! We had an open day a couple of months back where a child asked why the driver was putting black pebbles into the fire. Kids today need to know more about steam! lol

[globalintermodal]

Yep,that,s truth

[bfredline1]

Damn!

[ShellShock1967]

Whoa! That is one bad mother of a train!!

[maddobbo]

Thats so amazing, great effort!

[GeorgeHH21]

how long did it take to build that the question lol

[SouthernRR4501]

Is it a live steamer, or does is it electric?

[globalintermodal]

live steam model

[Idaten001]

@SouthernRR4501

Does is it electric, thumbs up for his crappy grammar

[Inuyasha4lif]

cool Y6

[SteffanLlwyd]

All power to the N&W!

[Weiberts]

Huge and sweet

[9720680]

title says big baby so of course it aint no big boy! aint this a malet?

[HellzNord]

wow thats huge

[bmxdevilpro88]

look at 0:10 its a close up and im not seein it

[bmxdevilpro88]

it doesnt say its a big boy and your wrong its a 2-6-6-2

[ronthecyborg]

that is not a 2-6-6-2. Look closely @ 0:27. You can tell the front drive axle is hidden by the pistons.

[ronthecyborg]

plus, if you read the description, he does call it a big boy

[1sp4wnk1ll4fun]

yeah, and you can look and see its articulated like the big boy.

[ronthecyborg]

I never said it was a BigBoy. If you read one of my other comments, I said it was a Y6b Mallet.

Not saying that you're calling it a bigboy, but that's how your post came out. Plus, there are other articulated engines besides the bigboy.

[1sp4wnk1ll4fun]

oh i wasnt, i was just refering to how it looked sorry for the confusion :)

[ronthecyborg]

very nice. But I just want to point out that that is not a BigBoy. It is a 2-8-8-2 Y6b Mallet.

Bigboys are 4-8-8-4's. Just thought I'd tell you that.

[flare40x]

Definitely an N&W Y6b and not a Big Boy. Two wheel lead truck, single stack and front pilot with all the typical N&W details... plus a round 21xx number plate (Y6b series).

[Hyce777]

Yeah, I know my big boys. That ain't one, cept its pretty damn impressive.

[boeingLL747]

wow! do you know what the price of the engine was?

[globalintermodal]

Engines like that no way to buy 100000.00$ that,s not enough

takes thousends of hour to built function without any comprom.

likes the orginal.
