Monster 408E

I was going through some old TTOS bulletins from 1978 and I saw this pic. The guy's name is Joe Goldwater and this is supposedly a "backyard 408e".

I just love this engine, I don't care what gauge it is.

Has anyone ever seen it? What happened to it? I'd love to see more standard gauge get big like this!

I wonder if there were any other engines made or rolling stock to go along with it? What gauge is the right of way?

I'd love to see this reviewed in CTT. "The drawbar pull is 85 pounds...."

;)
