4014 with the same scrawl, put on by the crew that rebuilt it before it got unveiled. 6000+hp, 80 mph 132ft long. largest steam locomotive ever built.
yeah it's impressive. i saw 4012 when i was a kid. steamtown was in bellows falls vt then. it was in rough shape with birds living in the boiler lagging.
I experienced it rolling through Iowa twice. You won't forget the sound. If you get the chance to see it at speed listen for the jingle and the roar ! You will swear that it's alive.
Norm “Mr. Norm” Krause, Pat Minick and Lenny Krause. Pat drove for Norm until he lost the seat to Gary Dyer. Also, look at the quarter panel for a hint of things to come- the car was tuned by John Farkonas and they called it the Hustler.
