I guess I'm unsure as to what I'm looking at (in Post #1) ... I already have the Athearn Genesis Big Boy (purchased in late 2013 ??) with DCC and sound ... how is this one different?

Oh, and I love mine ... nice movement on my 30+" radius turns

p.s. - and I didn't pay that much for mine !

How is it different?
should have a oil bunker instead of coal.
 
If you look at photos or videos of the 3985 you will see that even though it is an oil burner, it still has a coal tender. I wouldn't lose too much sleep over getting the proper tender on the 4014. Besides, back in the 50's it had a coal tender.

You can always renumber the duplicate #4026 and watch the prototypical guys have coronaries.

I often wonder about Tony (Wombat 457). Last was doing a N scale layout, but as he'd had other setbacks previously (e.g. G scale), figured something had upset the apple cart again.
