BO 2400 0-6-6-0 Mallet
Title:  BO 2400 0-6-6-0 Mallet
Description:  This is a photo of the largest steam engine in the world, at that moment in time. There is not an option on RRPA for an 0-6-6-0, so 0-6-0 was selected. This comes from the Universal Exposition of 1904, Vol II, aka the 1904 World's Fair in St Louis or Louisiana Purchase Exposition. The engine became known as Old Maude, per this link and history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltimore_and_Ohio_Railroad_locomotives
