Clement Hurd’s illustrations show No. 9 to be nearly identical to a PRR class S1, except for its 4-6-2 “Pacific” wheel arrangement, making No. 9 considerably shorter than a 6-4-4-6 PRR class S1. There are Lionel and MTH models of 6100. The locomotive has appeared in train games like Trainz and Train Simulator Classic.
The Pennsylvania Railroad's lone S1 was the only 6-4-4-6 ever constructed. A 6-4-4-6 steam locomotive, in the Whyte notation for describing locomotive wheel arrangements, is one with six leading wheels, two sets of four driving wheels, and six trailing wheels. Other equivalent classifications are:
PRR S1: Pennsylvania Railroad: 6100 Altoona Works: 1939 Steam 6-4-4-6: 487 tonnes (537 short tons) 76,403 pounds-force (340 kN) 7,200 horsepower (5,369 kW) Fast passenger steam locomotive; the magazine Popular Mechanics cites 1941 a speed of 133.4 mph (214.7 km/h) PRR S2: Pennsylvania Railroad: 6200 Baldwin Locomotive Works: 1944 Steam turbine ...

A train simulator (also railroad simulator or railway simulator) is a computer-based simulation of rail transport operations. They are generally large complicated software packages modeling a 3D virtual reality world implemented both as commercial trainers, and consumer computer game software with 'play modes' which lets the user interact by stepping inside the virtual world.
These were both withdrawn from service by the mid-1920s. In 1942, the PRR built 123 2-10-4 "Texas" type locomotives based on C&O plans; class J now being unoccupied, it was reused for them. The PRR J1 was an improved version of its C&O counterpart with more pulling power. J1 - 2-10-4 freight locomotives. J28 - experimental 2-6-2 locomotives.
Besides PRR S1 #6100, streamlined K4s, PRR S2 direct-drive steam turbine engine #6200, and PRR T1 were assigned to haul the train occasionally. In 1948, PRR re-equipped the Trail Blazer with new EMD E8 Diesel engines, new lightweight P85b 44-seat coaches and new twin-unit dining car built by PRR's own shop and ACF. In 1949, the westbound ...
