About this model
The Pennsylvania built exactly one S1. Altoona completed #6100 in December 1938, and at just over 140 feet with its tender it was the longest reciprocating steam locomotive ever built, wrapped in a Raymond Loewy shell. Clearances kept it on the Fort Wayne Division between Crestline, Ohio and Chicago, where it pulled the Broadway Limited, the Liberty Limited, the Trail Blazer, the General and the Golden Arrow on 84-inch drivers. It was scrapped in 1949.
The real S1 never wore Tuscan Red. This is Broadway Limited's what-if, painted in the color Pennsy used on its passenger cars.
This version: Paragon4 Sound/DC/DCC with synchronized smoke. Prefer to add your own decoder? See the DCC-Ready version.
Pairs well with
- #6100 in service dress, to show the real thing next to the what-if
- the 1939 World's Fair version
Match it to Tuscan Red passenger cars for a train the Pennsy never ran but easily could have.
