Extraordinary locomotives 🚂

[@will2926]

Thank you!!!

[@dillonohlemiller401]

If you want to be accurate, turn the headlight and the number boards off since it’s in its pre restoration state. Those things would not be working yet

[@will2926]

I tried to get those features disabled. However when linked in the legacy system as a train that feature is automatic. The headlight turns on the big boy when I switch back to the locomotive itself. I noticed those inaccuracies too. Thanks for the feedback. Stay tuned for part 2!

[@dillonohlemiller401]

Ohhhhh. Yeah in that case, I can overlook that lol

What is your favorite wheel arrangement

[@will2926]

My favorite wheel arrangement is 4-8-4 Northern Class. Specifically the ATSF 2900 Class is my favorite!!

Where did you find 8444!!??? It's the only one left I don't have of the UP heritage engines. I have calender with a picture on the cover taken here in Utah of 8444 and all 6 heritage engines together and I am desperately searching for 8444!!

[@will2926]

I actually found this locomotive on Facebook Marketplace! I recommend being apart of a lot of different Lionel/ O Gauge pages and seeing what pops up. The 8444 is a superb locomotive and with the early legacy features (road number specific talk) its an incredible locomotive.
