PRR A5 | v1.2

"In the 1920s many railroads in the United States of America had retired 0-4-0 steam locomotives, because they were too small for switching duties. This was not the case on the Pennsylvania Railroad. The Pennsylvania Railroad was keen on this wheel arrangement due to complex street and tight industrial trackage across its broad network. For some of these lines, the Pennsylvania Railroad needed a large 0-4-0 to handle the larger switching activities the railroad had. Although the class B was designated for steam locomotives with the 0-6-0 wheel arrangement, these steam locomotives could not fit the tight and complex street, dockyard and industrial trackage the Pennsylvania Railroad had in its possession."

Hello Everyone!
First, I'd like you all to know that the T1's development is now in full swing, I had to put it on hold for a few weeks because of the A5 being a project for my professor. Usually I like to prioritize the model queue based on popularity, but in this case classes took got in the way of things. Luckily with school coming to a close I'll be able to work on models more frequently!

Now with that out of the way, I'd like to talk briefly about the A5. This model has custom headlights on both the locomotive and the tender, at the time of uploading this the train mod lighting update is only on the testing branch, If you are not on the testing branch the headlights will not function. Once the update is out, I will start rolling out updates to my previous models to include both the long awaited bug fixes to the K4 as well as lighting and potentially custom sounds (we'll see about that one).

Anyways that's all for now, I hope you enjoy the A5 and are excited for the T1!

-Cheers!
