That is quite a monster!

[Weter]

Monster is 2TЭ126.
Like this, but double sectioned with additional steering wheel pairs on outer bogies.
There was very ancient model, I'll send You *.s, if You want to see it.
Axle formula was (1-20+20—20+20)-(20+20—20+20-1) i.e. 16 driving axles.

Sadly, this paint-suite represents retired condition of this locomotive, which was scrapped in 1997.
Cherry-color paint with white cabs, might be done for exhibition of 1986.
There was also ancient model of 136 in regular green. I'd wait for its upgrade.

Modelers have made underneath parts too - that's very nice. Design of paired bogeys can be examined.

I have a lot of favorite engines in my various collections, so it's hard to narrow it down. So I decided to put my most favorite engines into a train...

Nice idea, though I've initially decided to show one model per post, give a brief annotation, then allow some time for potential questions/discussions.
It's easier to answer in form "see post#N" then, while discussing some concrete machine.
However, You are welcome to introduce your favorite beasts.
But it's hard to see distant ones.
