Well. This was no small task, every aspect of this locomotive was a nightmare but at the same time a fun challenge.

The Union Pacific Railroad operated 2-8-8-0 locomotives. The UP Bull Moose 2-8-8-0's were built in 1918 and 1924 by ALCO-Brooks and were used to haul heavy loads over Sherman Hill. A slow freight pulling speed of 12 mph brought retirement in the late 40's and early 50's, as UP's 4-12-2 9000 class could pull the same weight at 50 mph. None of the Union Pacific Bull Moose locomotives survived the scrapper's torch.
