It's been 55+ years since I visited the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, but I want to remember a gigantic steam engine that they had there that was built to haul coal in West Virginia, but turned out to be too heavy for the track to handle. Can anyone confirm that, or is it just the imperfect recollection of an aging mind?
