History
The PRR T1 was a rigid, 4-4-4-4 duplex. Unlike other 4 wheelset arrangements, this wasn't articulated. (PRR had another duplex, the 6-4-4-6 with the T1 being the successors).

The T1's were massive beasts, with lots of power. So much power that it was prone to wheelslip, though it being a mechanical issue or lack of experience from the crew is something of debate). It was [supposedly] observed that to make up time, it would travel at 140mph, which would have made it the fastest locomotive in the world.

Unlike many streamlined steam engines in the US where they were shrouds, the streamline was actually part of the locomotive design, much like NYC Dreyfus'. These were constantly used on the

Q2 will be released very soon, it's a joint effort between me and SteveM4, he made the model and I'll be texturing it

I love this engine so much!! Thank you for bringing it to the game! Would love to see some more PRR steam engines such as the S1, Q1, and Q2. Would they be possible?

Uhhhh I don't think I did, and that could be a problem. I'll need to fix that honestly

Hey are there any PRR passenger cars that will work with the T1's top speed? All of the mods I have found only go up to about 125mph.
