Big boy/ Challenger cab question
Author: trainupaboy

Just curious about the back of the cab on either the challengers or the bigboy. Is, was the cab designed with an open back or entry, or does it have doors? Curtain? Any pics?

I think they have all weather cabs, but I'm not 100% sure

All of the UP heritage steam locomotives have the all weather cabs.

The all weather cab on 3985 was great.  I was a guest fireman on her on a St. Louis-KC trip in 19 degree weather.    Doors closed, windows open and very cozy.
