Union Pacific M-10000 Tin Worm (Marx) |

| location: |
A clockwork, gauge 0 model by [Marx], of Union Pacific's 1934 streamlined M-10000 diesel train (nicknamed "The Tin Worm").
The "worm" was styled by Pullman engineer Martin P Blomberg, and had an alumunium alloy bodyshell, brown with curved yellow side-panels, and a rounded rear end that looked very wormlike indeed.
