There is a steam engine at the LA fair grounds. There are only 8 of these static giants left in this nation. The biggest steam engine ever built.
I think it's kinda cool, after they repair it enough to be mobil they will snap track it and move it across the parking lot, the same way the train moved on the Gumby show to where it can be put on the railroad and moved to Cheyenne WY.
Having worked for the railroad seeing these giants steam engines operate, it brings back a time before my time, when America was the giant of giants.

It will join with the other 2 steam engines that still operate for the U.P.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K2uyA9h8b4
