Anthony Tonna's Wooden Locomotives: BigBoy

Anthony Tonna's Wooden Locomotives
BigBoy 4001

A friend of mine, Anthony Tonna, creates beautifully detailed and painstakingly handcrafted wood block models of steam locomotives from around the world. His latest creation is BigBoy 4001. This model is over 4' in length! Every part, facet and detail was hand made by Anthony. His next project will be a Beyer-Garrett, so check back often for updates! I hope you enjoy his work as much as I do...

A view looking down into the tender, notice the coal auger!

An overall shot of the entire engine from behind, you really get a feel of it's length.
