	PRR Q1 at AllExperts
		PRR Q1 The Pennsylvania Railroad's class Q1 comprised a single experimental steam locomotive for freight service, #6130, built in March 1942.
		The tender, although given a freight locomotive's "doghouse" on the rear deck for the head-end brakeman, was otherwise a streamlined affair very similar to that used on the S1, S2, and T1 passenger locomotives.
		It was assigned to the St. Clair Avenue Enginehouse in Columbus, Ohio and ran mostly in the Ohio area and to Chicago, Illinois.

		At 25 inches long the Railking S2 captures the look of the prototype very well, from the boiler front, to the spacing of the drive wheels, to the detailed cab and the large 16 wheel tender.
		No discussion of the S2 would be complete without mentioning other, recent releases of the Pennsy giant.
		The MTH S2 is a terrific locomotive that runs as good as it looks. If there was one item I could change it would be to add backup lights to the tender - the detail is already molded in.

		PRR Is Critical for the Correct Folding and Secretion of Downstream SP Domain-- Seven expression plasmids were transfected into S2 cells.
		Clearly, PRR is important for the folding and, hence, secretion of the serine protease.
		Thus, whereas PRR is crucial for correctly directing folding and secretion of the downstream glycosylated SP domain, chaperones and foldases also play a role in enhancing protein folding, to ensure that the modular arrangement of the glycosylated protein is properly folded to remain soluble or targeted for secretion and to exhibit full functionality.

		In contrast to the contemporary PRR locomotives and cars were several examples of historic equipment, including a wooden Cumberland Valley Railroad Combination Coach originally built in 1855, six late 19th Century wooden passenger cars, and a class H3 freight steam locomotive built in 1887.
		Penn Central had other plans for the bulk of the artifacts and by September of 1969 it appeared that a significant part of the PRR collection was earmarked for inclusion into the collection of the National Museum of Transportation in St. Louis, Missouri.
		The PRR collection was moved piecemeal with the first locomotives arriving in October of 1969 and the other pieces arriving in various stages through 1975 when the first section of the museum exhibit hall was completed.

		PRRs are shown when statistically significant at the 5% level and are ordered according to the magnitude of the lower 95% confidence interval (CI).
		For publicans and barstaff, statistically significantly raised PRRs were seen for cancers of the mediastinum, oropharynx, gum, ill-defined lip and pharynx, lung, and cervical cancer.

	Re: WILLIAMS BRASS ENGINES WERE MADE - Trains.com Forums
		PRR: 4-6-2, original, streamlined, and postwar with the headlight behind the generator and a solid pilot.
		These required some work (as it re-drilling mounting holes and filing) in order to put them on the engine and, at least in the case of the Pacific they interferred with the truck movements which meant the engine needed larger radius track.
		I have the PRR 4-4-2, 4-6-2, and the Shark.

		The first experimental duplex on the PRR was the S1, a huge rigid frame duplex locomotive of the 6-4-4-6 wheel arrangement.
		The wheel arrangement of the S2 was originally to be 4-8-4 when the design was completed in 1941, but since the Second World War broke out, the original idea of using light weight materials for certain components was banned by the Government.
		When the S2 began it's life, it had no smoke lifters, but soon acquired a pair of small lifters, but apparently, these weren't adequate, so a larger pair was added later.

		One bold new design deriving from the PRR's efforts was the S2 Steam Turbine.
		While the S2 still had a firebox and boiler and still generated steam, the pressure was run through a turbine instead of reciprocating cylinders to make power.
		Despite its high-speed efficiency, the S2 still retained many of the high costs of operating a steam engine.

	S. Berliner, III's Whyte System Railroad Page
		I favor that idea, and generally use it, but have NOT done so here; it would unnecessarily complicate the table and confuse matters.
		By that standard, a rigid frame PRR T1 would still be a 4-4-4-4 and the S1 "Big Engine" a 6-4-4-6 while the DD1 mated pair would be a 4-4-0+0-4-4 and the GG1 and UP Challenger 4-6+6-4s.
		The European system counts axles instead of wheels, such that the American type is a 2-2-0, the PRR S1 a 3-2-2-3, and the Erie Triplex a 1-4-4-4-1, and the Virginian Triplex a 1-4-4-4-2 (their electrics and diesels are done very differently, indeed, as we shall see).

		A Marx chrome-nose Commodore Vanderbilt train set he received for Christmas in 1938 at the age of three started Reed's interest in model trains.
		At 12, he bought his first Lionel set (PRR S2 steam turbine and 4 freight cars) and continued his train modeling in tinplate until he moved to HO scale in 1959.
		The S2 got him interested in the distinctive motive power of the PRR and that remains his main modeling effort.

		History: Used on commuter routes radiating out of Hoboken, this type of locomotive was the first to utilize shaft driven head end power for providing electricity to the passenger cars for heat and air conditioning, and was the predecessor of this methodology currently used by Amtrak and other passenger carrying authorities.
		At the peak of PRR commuter operations, there were approximately four hundred MP54s in service including a variety of combine, RPO, and trailer cars.
		It was originally painted in PRR Tuscan Red as "Cambridge Inn" and was the last of 48 cars converted from 21 Roomette Sleepers to coaches.

	MTH Sound Files - Topic Powered by eve community
		The pump sounds are of a single type as opposed to a double compound found on larger locomotives as this engine had/has.
		I was watching the MTH DVD that came with my new TIU/Remote combo pack last night and noticed that when they showed the PRR S2 turbine, it too had this exact same single tone whistle and single pump sound file.
		Jon, I'm wondering if there is any way you could make a recording of your Decapod in MP3 or WAV format and post a link to it or send it to me. It would be a shame if it had the same high pitched single tone whistle my little 4-4-0 has.
