Here is a 4 1-2"W peach glass locomotive that sits atop a detached 5"W matching base with train tracks and the words Union Pacific R.R in raised lettering. Safe Labor Day weekend travels everyone!

This is so cool! Never seen a train engine modeled in glass. It is fabulous!
It is indeed very cool. :-)
I used Google Lens to try to find the maker, and possibly it's Hofbauer Crystal?, e.g.:
https://www.bullockauctioneers.com/auctions/29527/lot/181837-group-of-2-hofbauer-lead-crystal-locomotives
If it's Hofbauer Crystal then it was likely made by Nachtmann Crystal of Germany. Hofbauer made no glass, only marketed glassware of others under its Hofbauer name just like Mikasa and others do/did.
Still; it's a very cool item.
