The first 4884's were built in 1941 by American Locomotive Co for Union Pacific. They made 20 of the first class, then 5 more in 1944. I think the last one was retired late in 1962. They were know as the "Big Boys" with a 4884 axle arrangement.

Rory, Aren't you afraid that posting your pic will lead to stalking?
