PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD
and
LONG ISLAND RAIL ROAD
Class G5 4-6-0 Ten-Wheelers

You could not call the Pennsylvania Railroad fickle - when they found a good thing they stuck with it, particularly when it had to do with steam locomotives! A case in point was the Class G5s ten-wheelers. Built in 1923-1925 as a replacement for double-headed Atlantic-types. The 50 G5s had the ability to meet schedules (and running as high as 70 m.p.h) which compensated for the complaints: rough riding, hard on water, hard to fire, and not suited for heavy snow! The G5 was a natural for commuter operations and was good enough for the Pennsy to order another 31 for the Long Island Rail Road.

We will offer these locomotives as they appeared in the latter days of steam. The Division Point and Boo-Rim will offer this LIMITED EDITION. Reserve yours today!
