That is so neat pi don’t know if the big boy steam locomotive got down your way . I missed it as it was delayed. One of my friends friends did see it and made a video of it. We visited a friend  of his who has his entire basement made into a giant ho scale site modeling iron range city yards . I think he has 6 Malleys on was pulling 100 iron ore cars just as full scale . I actually saw them when I was just a kid pulling trains out of the mines and at the ore docks in Duluth . There is one on display at the front museum in Duluth, minn

I would have loved to have been there for the events. Unfortunately too far away for me.  Thanks for the videos.

Have a few more to load, but here’s the first two. I was very fortunate to be invited up and got to pull throttle on the big 40 Gaar  ;D  (unfortunately no picture or video of that…)
