We've managed to see a number of the "Big Boy" steam locomotives. Our visit to Steamtown (Scranton, Pennsylvania) adds yet another, #4012. The locomotive is being maintained quite nicely. You can climb up into the cab, but there are barriers to prevent you from trying to start it up. Image processed with GIMP.

Steamtown in Scranton, Pennsylvania. They have a very nice collection of locomotives, including this one (#43, saddle tank type). Fortunately, there are benches around to help us rest our feet from walking through the large railroad area. Image processed with GIMP.
