Lionel's Legacy engines are nice and all but if I had 2 grand to drop it would be on a Brute before a Big Boy all day long. 

Absolutely without a doubt not even a contest.  Brute all the way... especially that Goliath!!! 

That and the accompanying three cars were my "baptism" into Standard Gauge , and I haven't looked back.  That LCCA set is a stunning train, so the real trick is to find the Goliath and the matching black cars together.

David,

I agree with  you completely.  As a retired Navy SEAL, the "stealthy black" Milwaukee Road Goliath and its three matching  "stealthy black" passenger cars get my vote everyday!!!  See it in action at Trainfest 2016 this coming November in Milwaukee.   But if you can't wait till then, via the link below watch Goliath in action on the video of SGMA at Trainfest 2014, first pulling its matching passenger cars and then a long and unique circus train!
