Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 (1941)

It's surprisingly difficult to find decent photos and they all seem to differ in the details, so please let me know if you find any mistakes!

if you draw it as a 1941 version, you should have the date depicted written on the drawing. And have coal in the tender.

If you was to draw it as how it is today, then I would draw it with those 1-2 extra water/fuel tender it have.

I don't think they have changed so much on it's exterior, compared to when it was build, except those modern equipment they have to have on her after US-regulation.

I think the grey color should be more light, and there is more "shine" in the black metal. After What I know, they staid true to how it was, including color.

Thanks for the feedback! I've drawn it as it is today, since there are more good pictures available for that. The most visible differences I found are related to the conversion to oil-burning, for example they removed the black ashpans below the firebox and some stuff below the cab that I think was part of the mechanical stoker. Fair point about the water tenders, not sure they count as part of the locomotive though. They have at least two different ones (number UPP 809 and number UPP 814) which they seem to use interchangeably with both of their steam locomotives, as opposed to the black tenders which always stay with the same locomotive. I'll try and draw another version later that has a water tender attached to it.

For now though, are these colours better? The grey parts are lighter now, not sure how to show the black stuff being shiny other than by increasing the contrast.
