[Express Freight] PRR S1, NYC Niagara, UP Challenger, Big Bog, N&W Class A

👍 Dear club members and audiences! Have you ever imagine a steam engine that was designed for express passenger train service and was caple of hitting 130mph, powered a freight train for testing? Believe it or not, It actually happened in American railroading history! I believe a smart person like you know exactly what we are talking about! Yes, it was the PRR S1 #6100 6-4-4-6 Duplex "Big Engine"! According to The Keystone Magazine | Vol.27 | No.2 | Summer 1994, during a pre-service (1939) road test, the S1 was clocked at 73 miles per hour (117 km/h) towing 90 freight cars!💪 We assume the 90 freight cars were loaded, so we try to recreate the test run with the help of the Trainz Simulator base on the historical record! You will see the NYC Niagara 4-8-4, the legendary dual service engine hauling the same load (90 cars) compete with the PRR S1!

In part three, you will see a race suggested by our club member -👍 Conrail Valley Productions, PRR FG-1 (a fantasy engine created by K&L Trainz and N&W 1218 double-heading verse two UP Big Boys (4012 & 4014). You can also find the UP 4-6-6-4 Challenger vs. N&W Class A #1219 in this video.
