The Articulateds are the largest steam locomotives ever built. Starting as slow speed monsters hauling heavy trains over mountain ridges, they became a regular feature of many of the big Class 1 railroads, handling everything from slow drag freights, to fast time freights, and even were able to pinch hit on passenger trains.
