mf that image is POOR it is AI GENERATED so TERRIBLY there are SO MANY MISTAKES it makes me MAD
For one, the engine is ATTACHED to it's CARRIAGE, not connected by a coupling or anything, but fused together like someone decided to weld a DOG'S FRONT TO A CAT'S TAIL! There is only ONE engine in the UK that had such a feature, that being the F9 class of the London and South Western Railway, and that engine was built to be A LIMO FOR THE CHIEF ENGINEER OF THE RAILWAY!
SECOND OF ALL, that engine has a COE CATCHER of which NO ENGINE IN THE UK HAS, along with NO BUFFERS, which only some QUARRY ENGINES USED because they weren't NEEDED on NARROW GAUGE TRAINS!

The nerd from The Polar Express is completely fucking wrong when he talks about the engine. He says the engine is "a Baldwin 2-8-4 S3-class Berkshire type steam locomotive built at the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1931 and weighs 456,100 pounds"
This is what he *said* the Polar Express is..👇
Tumblr media
Vs. What The Polar Express actually is...
Pere Marquette 1225 N-class 2-8-4 Berkshire type. Built by *Lima* Locomotive Works in *1941* and weighs 802,500 lb (364,000 kg)
This kid is just fucking wrong
