Pennsylvania Railroad I1 2-10-0 #4309 pounds its way around Horseshoe Curve. While most other US railroads found the 2-10-0 wheel arrangement lacking, the PRR went and cranked out 598 of them with 62" drivers, 250psi boilers, 30 1⁄2"Γ—32" cylinders, 96,000lbs tractive effort and no stoker.

Additional locomotive for upcoming Horseshoe curve

I’m honestly a bit disappointed that the upcoming Horseshoe curve as of now only has two locomotives in the route. Not to mention a reused one. I’m curious of what locomotive/locomotives would fellow US freight fans want in the route. My top two would have to be wide cab Sd60 or Sd70m even a Reskinned Sd70ACe would do fine by me even though I’ve already made one for myself via livery editor. But like I said I’m curious to see what others would want.

Last month I finally made the pilgrimage to Horseshoe Curve. I got lucky and managed to catch both a Norfolk Southern coal train with a helper on the rear, and a Norfolk Southern intermodal train in short order. The coal train had barely cleared the curve when the intermodal train entered. reddit.com/gallery/p33cex

Why at times did steam engines would haul a single caboose behind them? This is a PRR Class J1 2-10-4 hauling a single caboose of the same road on the Horseshoe curve during the steam era on a train simulator video

I was watching this train simulator video that shows busy steam, traffic on the horseshoe curve on the Pennsylvania railroad system during the steam era. The first train in the video I saw was a PRR J1 hauling a single PRR caboose behind it. I wondered why it would be hauling a single one behind it. Why so?

Does anyone know why there hasn't been any new Horseshoe Curve content for TS2021?

So I've fallen in love with the PRR again after getting an HO Scale Varney 4-6-0 Model. I looked at the Store, and realized no other PRR content has been added at all.

Does anyone know why Dovetail hasn't done anything with it? There's still a very large selection of things they could add that are unique, like the T1's and J1's, so is there an actual reason for it?
