I think Jim is referring to the BIGGEST of the Big Bud line, there was once asingle Big Bud made that was way huger (is that a word?) than the "normal" Big Bud tractors. It has been in several parts of the US but a few years back it was brought back to Montana and rebuilt and is in use on a farm there now. Not sure about moving it by rail, but there is a model called the "Biggest Big Bud" that put out 900 HP. This is from the Big Bud website:

"In 1978 Northern Manufacturing built the "Biggest Big Bud" ever made, the 16v-747. Powered by a Detroit Diesel 16 cylinder engine with a Twin Disc power shift transmission, it currently puts out 900 HP. The tractor was special ordered by Rossi Farms of California and was the 16th unit manufactured in 1978 by Northern. The serial number is 7816. The tractor has had two owners since it left California, Willow Brook Farms of Palm City, Florida and its current owners, the Williams Brothers (Randy & Robert) of Big Sandy, MT."
