Pennsylvania 4-6-2 Torpedo Steam Engine w/Proto-Sound 2.0

In the 1920's the Pennsylvania Railroad experimented with a new streamlined look on the venerable K-4 4-6-2 Pacific to accompany their passenger cars. While many of the K-4's sported various versions of this new look, the "Torpedo" was the only K-4 steamer to have the complete make-over.

The new design was meant to cut down on wind resistance, however the outer covering proved to be difficult to maintain and was later removed from all K-4 locomotives. While the streamlining didn't last long, no one can deny the beautiful look the sleek designs gave the old iron horses, especially when pulling a matching passenger car consist.
