The Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) class T1 duplex-drive 4-4-4-4 steam locomotives, introduced in 1942 with two prototypes and later in 1945-1946 with 50 production examples, were the last steam locomotives built for the PRR and arguably its most controversial.
Nine T-1's (Nos. 2107, 2111-2115, 2119, and 2128) were leased to the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR), while others ran upstate in Pennsylvania on the RDG, until early 1957. Some T-1s were also loaned as steam generators to Steel mills. Upon returning to the RDG the following year, the PRR-leased locomotives, with the exception of No. 2128, were ...
Pennsylvania Railroad 5550 (PRR 5550) is a mainline duplex drive steam locomotive under construction in the United States. With an estimated completion by 2030, the locomotive will become the 53rd example of the Pennsylvania Railroad's T1 steam locomotive class and the only operational locomotive of its type, [7] as well as the largest steam locomotive built in the United States since 1952.
The standard for Nominal Pipe Size (often abbreviated NPS, which should not be confused with the abbreviation NPS for the straight thread form standard) is loosely related to the inside diameter of Schedule 40 series of sizes. Because of the pipe wall thickness of Schedule pipe, the actual diameter of the NPT threads is larger than the Nominal ...

PRR FF1 experimental locomotive PRR GG1 #4890 at the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay, Wisconsin. When work on the Hudson River tunnels and New York's Penn Station was in progress, the type of electric locomotives to be used was an important consideration. At that time only a few electric locomotives existed.
The Pennsylvania Railroad K4 was a class of 425 4-6-2 steam locomotives built between 1914 and 1928 for the PRR, where they served as the primary main line passenger steam locomotives on the entire PRR system until late 1957. Attempts were made to replace the K4s, including the K5 and the T1 duplex locomotive.
