according to wiki
If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.

up 844      i was at the train show in ogden utah today    i stood by the gs4-8-4  road number 833 and the DD40ax  i think the number was 6936or 3916  the dd40ax was longer.    under the right front steps thats where they placed the bell    i rang it a few times .    also a turbine loco with road numbers 26   i forgot my camera so maybe ill be back tomarrow to take some pictures.          my ticket number today was 8440 to get in and i won a trip on the neveda railway  for 4 people with that cool ticket.
