MTH ELECTRIC TRAINS

At one point in 1924, the Pennsy roster was home to 3,335 2-8-0 Consolidations, proving the importance of this engine as a freight hauler. These workhorses were versatile; they worked the mainline for more than 50 years, and later, when larger engines elbowed them from the mainline, did duty on branch lines, local freights, work trains, and even in yards. The PRR made 10 different variations on their H-class 2-8-0 over the course of more than 30 years. The H10s Consolidation originally worked on Pennsy's Lines West region, though they moved east to help with World War II traffic and remained in the east until the end of Pennsy's steam days. You can take advantage of the Pennsy H10s Consol's famous flexibility on your own railroad, by assigning M.T.H.'s highly detailed, sturdy locomotive duty anywhere on your layout, from a yard to the mainline.
