It was renumbered No. 209 in 1987 and assigned to the UP Heritage Fleet in 1990. In 1996, it was named Howard Fogg in honor of the renowned railroad artist following his passing. In 2000, the car was converted to boiler-dorm-HEP (Head End Power), adding an electric generator to supply power to the passenger cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Howard Fogg is still used by the UP Steam Team. Its onboard steam generator can provide steam when maintenance is required while No. 844 or No. 4014 is on the road, and it also supported No. 3985 when that locomotive was part of UP’s excursion roster. For the crew’s use on extended trips, the car includes three sleeping rooms, a shower, a laundry room, and a small lounge area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this first production run, we are offering the Howard Fogg in three era-specific appearances: 1997–2004, 2010–2019, and 2021–2026. A fourth version will feature the America250 artwork, accurately matching the car’s appearance during Big Boy No. 4014’s cross-country tour. For something different, we are also offering a Two-Tone Gray fantasy appearance, a scheme the car never wore in real life but one that pairs perfectly with other two-tone gray equipment. For those who want a personalized touch, a primer-gray version is also available, perfect for painting and customizing to match your own railroad. All versions will be available with or without sound, and the prototype-based versions include era-specific details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:.4em 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eBeautifully detailed and accurately modeled to its Union Pacific appearance across multiple operating eras\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003ePrecision paint, color, and lettering schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eMany separately applied details, including handrails, grab irons, antenna, and underbody details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eEtched-metal side grilles and fan covers where applicable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eAccurately detailed Timken roller-bearing trucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eMultiple truck variations based on era-specific operation (where applicable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eBlanked windows where era-appropriate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eAccurate roof details for each era\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eMultiple underbody detail variations per the prototype\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eDetailed interior prototypical to No. 209\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eMagnetic wand activates onboard sounds (sound versions only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eDimmable interior lights with finger-touch control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eTwo operating Kadee-compatible couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eCompatible track: Code 70, 83, and 100 rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:2px;\"\u003eMinimum operating radius: 18 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Broadway Limited Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68030547067034,"sku":"10930","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0479\/9781\/2890\/files\/1093010931-HowardFogg250Photo_6250dcfa-b636-4470-a8b2-5fa7f09da5e8.jpg?v=1793653039","url":"https:\/\/broadway-limited.com\/products\/10930-union-pacific-howard-fogg-car-modern-big-boy-tour-appearance-america-250-with-sound-ho","provider":"Broadway Limited Imports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
