Folks it\u2019s Pride month, and as such, I thought you would enjoy<\/p>\n

locomotive in the whole world: the Norfolk & Western J class! Sorry this took a while, I\u2019m trying to revamp these locomotives and not just convert them right over.<\/p>\n

The Norfolk & Western J Class was one of the last gasps of mainline streamlined conventional steam locomotives. Built in the N&W\u2019s own shops in 1941, they proved extremely powerful and capable of hauling the N&W\u2019s fastest passenger trains (the\u00a0Pocahontas\u00a0and the\u00a0Powhattan Arrow) over its short but mountainous mainline from Norfolk to Cincinnati. Unlike most streamlined steam locomotives, no professional industrial designer designed the shrouding \u2013 it was all done by regular guys in the shops in Roanoke.<\/p>\n

Dieselization came late to the coal-rich N&W, with the J class only being retired in 1958. Towards the end of their lives they found themselves in all kinds of miscellaneous service, proving powerful enough to haul long slow unit coal trains and manifests.<\/p>\n

The locomotive has been altered since TPF1 \u2013 featuring updated textures, better couplers, ploppable assets, and working coupler doors. A colorable version has also been included for all you freaks who like colorable trains.<\/p>\n

Stats for nerds:<\/p>\n

Max Speed: 115 MPH
\nPower: 5100 horsies
\nTractive Effort: 80,0000 ft-lbs
\nAvailable: 1941-1960<\/p>\n
