It makes it sound like they are gonna run it.
That would be sick. I liked the Challenger more than Big Boy honestly. It will probably take 20 years if it actually happens.
At least it's good to hear it isn't just a salvage unit.

Same. I think the proportions look better.

Having a Northern, Challenger, and Big Boy would have been awesome. They should have held on to 3985, but maybe a museum will be able to operate it with the others in the future.

Having these locos taken away from UP is honestly the best thing that could've happened to them.

Yup. Ed Dicklicker really fucked up the program, not to mention the cunts in upper management looking to cut costs anywhere they can with their horseshit PSR.
