Pennsylvania Railroad Class Q2. The Pennsylvania Railroad's class Q2 consisted of 26 duplex steam

The Pennsylvania Railroad's class Q2 consisted of 26 duplex steam locomotives of the 4-4-6-4 wheel arrangement, designed and built for high-speed freight service during World War II, and . These were an improved version of the previous Q1 class, which was a 4-6-4-4 dual-purpose engine instead of a 4-4-6-4 freight engine. It had a service weight of 278,000 pounds and a maximum axle load of 74,000 pounds on the first axle. This was only intended for freight tr The Pennsylvania Railroad was known as the "Standard Railroad of the World". These were an improved version of the previous Q1 class, which was a 4-6-4-4 dual-purpose engine instead of a 4-4-6-4 freight engine. In static testing, one of the locomotives achieved an output of almost 8,000 hp. This video is about the ill-fated attempt by the Pennsylvania Railroad to save or prolong the Age of Steam with it's Duplex 4-4-6-4 Q2 Locomotive. (the Q-2 wasn't streamlined but she was a the most powerful steam locomotive ever made) video used is my old 8mm, I do have more video footage on the Q-2 tha (the Q-2 wasn't streamlined but she was a the most powerful steam locomotive ever made) video used is my old 8mm, I do have more video footage on the Q-2 tha The Q2 class of locomotives were a result of the Pennsylvania Railroad's exploration into the practicality of duplex locomotives; The Pennsylvania Railroad 's class Q2 comprised one prototype and twenty-five production duplex steam locomotives of 4-4-6-4 wheel arrangement built between 1944 and 1945. This made it possible to The Pennsylvania Railroad's class Q2 comprised one prototype and twenty-five production duplex steam locomotives of 4-4-6-4 wheel arrangement. These were duplex locomotives, in which both sets of driving wheels were mounted in a Prototype: The Pennsylvania Railroad's class Q2 comprised of one prototype and twenty-five production duplex steam locomotives of 4-4 The Pennsylvania Railroad's class Q2 comprised one prototype and twenty-five production duplex steam locomotives of 4-4-6-4 wheel arrangement.

The duplex-drive T1 was the final class of steam locomotive constructed for the Pennsylvania Railroad, and possibly the most controversial. Even with that bold claim, the Pennsy wasn't afraid to deviate from their standard to create some oddball experiments. Despite the overall success, the Q2s were all out of History on the legendary Pennsylvania Railroad Q2 4-4-6-4 locomotive and Broadway Limited's detailed HO scale model. T1 - Duplex express passenger locomotive. The Pennsylvania Railroad 's Q2 class were the only locomotives ever to use this arrangement. All were The The Pennsylvania Railroad's class C1 was the heaviest 0-8-0 locomotive ever built.

Despite the overall success, the Q2s were all out of Overall, the Q2 is considered the largest non-articulated steam locomotive of all time. With dieselization, they were the obvious first targets to be withdrawn since they were only a little more capable than the conventional J1 class 2-10-4s, but with far-higher operating and The Pennsylvania Railroad class Q2 employed a large Belpaire-type firebox boiler designed for high-capacity steam production, operating at a working pressure of 300 psi to support the The Q2 locomotive was 78% more powerful than the locomotives that PRR had in service at the time, and the company claimed the Q2 could pull 125 freight cars at a speed of 50 mph (80 The Pennsylvania Railroad 's class Q2 comprised one prototype and twenty-five production duplex steam locomotives of 4-4-6-4 wheel arrangement built between 1944 and 1945.
