The BIG 3!! My Largest O-Gauge Steam Engines

Very impressive steam engines Jason!!

Hey, you finally got the Triplex! I just watched the video, Jason. Those are some massive engines, man. You're right. The Triplex is a pretty cool engine. I love the Russian iron paint scheme. I'm looking forward to the next videos. Can you give us a hint as to what is next on the list of upcoming videos?

Excellent choices on a big three..

I guess mine would be:

#1 MTH PS2 Yellowstone

#2 Lionel Legacy Allegheny

Hrm...well #3 has never been made. I'd like a Milwaukee Road "N" class mallet.  Maybe someday!

And the A!

Hi Jason,  really enjoyable video!  Getting all three locos operating at the same time in the same location is a fantastic grand Finale!  Best, Dave

I have two of the three, plus a coal version of 4014 that I bought as my first scale articulated...shortly before UP announced which Big Boy they selected for restoration.

I was tempted by the Triplex a few times, but never got worked up enough to pull the trigger. I think I'd pick a Yellowstone if I had to choose.

Cool, I still want a Tri-Plex, but I have the other two cornered.

Congratulations.

It's never too late to have a happy childhood.

Jason, I finally got this video watched. Been overly busy with all sorts of non-train stuff going on unfortunately. The Allegheny is one that is definitely on my list. It is a very impressive locomotive to say the least. Not a Big Boy fan, and the Triplex has got to be the weirdest(yeah, someone will tell me there is one even stranger) locomotive ever made. Glad you got your big 3. I am not entirely sure what my 3 are, Dreyfuss would be #1, which I do have, I think S2 Turbine is on that list, but not the big 3. I don't know what the rest are maybe because I haven't made a list, lol.
