motive power for express passenger service, the   Pennsylvania Railroad introduced the class T1 Duplex 4-4-4-4 in 1942 with two   prototype locomotives, and followed in 1945-1946 with 50 production models.    Built with striking streamlining designed by Raymond Loewy, the T1 engines   were large, powerful, and fast! \u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"\u003eThe T1's were duplex   locomotives - this means they had two sets of drivers, each with its own pair   of cylinders and rods.  However, the T1s were not articulated   locomotives, but used one rigid frame.  With this design, the cylinders   could be smaller and the weight of side rods and main rods could be reduced.    This duplex design with lighter machinery, shorter cylinder stroke, less wear   and tear due to small moving parts and the use of poppet valves allowed the   T1's to travel at extremely fast speeds.  Unfortunately they were also   prone to wheelslip and maintenance issues that the Pennsy struggled to work   through - especially the fact that the poppet valves could not withstand   sustained operation at 100 mph speeds.  These problems likely could have   been resolved with some modest design changes, but the PRR, and steam in   general, ran out of time.  In 1948, the PRR dieselized all of its   first-class prime trains and the T1s were downgraded to haul secondary trains.     Some were withdrawn from service in 1949, and all were retired by 1952.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp style=\"line-height:

our Stealth Series.  We are building       five models in   traditional DGLE paint and Pennsy lettering, one Unlettered model that will be   painted DGLE, and three models decorated in fantasy paint schemes based on   well-known PRR paint schemes.    The Stealth Series models are No-Sound \/ DCC-Ready models that operate on DC out of   the box, or a modeler can easily install their DCC decoder of choice.    Out of the box, front and rear lights are directional, and other lights are   always ON with track power.  Additionally some lighting functions may be   missing depending on selected aftermarket decoder the modeler installs.       \u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e      \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e      \u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e        \u003ccenter\u003e        \u003ctable
