Yeah its expensive but I flat out don't care. I ve have not felt like this since a kid at Christmas time. Sorry if this is not the right forum but I wanted to share with people that would understand.

I think we all feel that way. Enjoy it. Update the post once you get it up and running.
I also got one. This is the fifth new item I've purchased and I thought the excitement would have dropped a bit but it's still super exciting!
I also thought I wouldn't be so impressed with this because I have a 2-10-10-2, a Railking Triplex, and a 4-12-2..but it really impressed me!
Congrats!
Got one too, love it. Good for you!
Thanks Guys. I'll send pictures of my layout and the BB when it arrives. I'm thinking about setting the stage with my grandson by sitting him down next to one of the tunnels and have the BB make an entrance by slowly rolling out.
I didn't have any previous version of the Big Boy on my roster so it made sense to pre-order one. It's very impressive. I've been running it with the ES44AC from the Rocket Booster set and it looks, sounds, and runs great -- smokes like a beast. Very pleased.
That's great to hear. One thing I need to do is "walk the track" on my layout to make sure I have all of my clearences set at the right distance.
