To give you guys my honest answer......I would rather have a Southern Pacific P-8 like the one in the picture at the top of the page more than a 4-12-2. I just really love #2472. Its been one of our family's favorite engines. And to have that run with my Bachmann Daylight #4449.......it would be a dream come true lol.
