OP&P 4-10-4 Pack

I had been planning to do a 4-10-4 Steam Locomotives for my railroad, the Oregon Portland & Pacific Railroad.




History
In the beginning of the 1920's. The Oregon Portland & Pacific Railroad was looking for a locomotive to pull Freight Trains at High Speeds without any problems. so in 1927, they went with The Northern Locomotive Works (NLW, my locomotive producer.) developed a 4-10-4 wheel arrangement, The first 4-10-4 built was the class G-1, No. 8000, 8000 was the Prototype of its class and its a four cylinder compound locomotive. But there no other G-1's produce as 8000 was a nightmare to maintain and expensive to operate, so they ordered 20 G-2's between 1927 & 1928, numbered 8001 though 8020 these locomotives for VERY successful that not only they pull Freight Trains, but they were comfortable pulling Passenger Trains as well, and OP&P was the first railroad to operate the 4-10-4 wheel arrangement, so as such the 4-10-4's are nicknamed "Oregon Type". Despite their overall success, they couldn't pull trains over Mountains on OP&P's Rail Lines as the tracks there couldn't handle a 4-10-4 wheel arrangement, but they were successful in the flat lands as it was best suited for them. By 1930 OP&P ordered 15 G-3's, they were numbered 8021 though 8035, they were more powerful and faster than the G-2's with 99.010 pounds of tractive effort. In 1942 OP&P ordered 10 of G-4's, they were numbered 8036 though 8045, the G-4's were equipped with a Watertube-Firebox as OP&P wanted to try out the Watertubes from NLW, making The G-4's the first OP&P Watertube Steamer. In 1944, the OP&P ordered last 16 batches of G-5's, they were numbered 8046 though 8060, The G-5's were copy design from the G-4's, however, the G-5's had a feedwater heater. The 4-10-4's will continue to serve the OP&P until 1963 when all of them were retired, only 2 G-Class Oregons have been saved, No. 8000 (First and prototype of its class) was preserved by the OP&P Crews when they convinced the Railroad to donate 8000 to the City of Las Vegas, Nevada, the engine was put on display at a local Park, and she'll remain there until 1980 when the group of people moved her to the Nevada Institute of Science (my fictional museum) to preserve her, and she still there today. G-4 No. 8043 was preserved by OP&P, and was donated to the City of Sacramento, California, she'll remain there until 1987 when she was moved to the California State Railroad Museum, and she's still there today.
