BR Standard Class 6
The Standard class 6, otherwise known as the ''Clan'' Class, was a class of 4-6-2, 4-6-2 ''Pacific'' Tender (railroad car), tender steam locomotive designed by Robert Riddles for use by British Railways. Ten locomotives were constructed between 1951 and 1952, with a further 15 planned for construction. However, due to acute steel shortages in Britain, the order was continually postponed until it was finally cancelled on the publication of the 1955 Modernisation Plan for the re-equipment of British Railways. All of the original locomotives were scrapped, but a new one was being built. The ''Clan'' Class was based upon the BR Standard Class 7, ''Britannia'' Class design, incorporating a smaller boiler and various weight-saving measures to increase the route availability of a ''Pacific''-type locomotive for its intended area of operations, the west of Scotland. The ''Clan'' Class received a mixed reception from crews, with those regularly operating the locomotives giving favourab ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
LSWR X6 Class
The LSWR X6 class was a class of express passenger 4-4-0 steam locomotives designed for the London and South Western Railway by William Adams. Ten were constructed at Nine Elms Locomotive Works between 1895 and 1896. The class were numbered 657–666, and just as the T3 class were a smaller-wheeled version of the X2 class, the X6 class were a smaller-wheeled version of the T6 class. The boiler was identical to that used the T6 class. Some of the engines were subsequently fitted with a Drummond boiler, including No. 658 which was the last Adams 4-4-0 to remain in service.

The Red Flag 6-class ( ko, 붉은기6 ''Pulg'ŭn'gi''-6) is a http://www.cchere.com/topic/3893100 two-section, permanently coupled electric locomotive built by the Kim Chong-t'ae Electric Locomotive Works and used by the Korean State Railway for heavy freight trains on mountainous lines.Kokubu, Hayato, 将軍様の鉄道 (Shōgun-sama no Tetsudō), Description As the electrification of the Korean State Railway's network continued into the 1980s, the Red Flag 1 and Red Flag 2 class locomotives were the dominant type in service under the wires. However, with the electrification of steep mountain lines, it was realised that a more powerful locomotive was needed. Therefore, the Kim Chong-tae Electric Locomotive Works began design work on an articulated locomotive to operate freight trains on the difficult mountainous sections. Using the Red Flag 2 class as a starting point, the Red Flag 6 (붉은기6, ''Pulg'ŭn'gi''-6) class was developed. The result was a permanently coupled B ...

Pennsylvania Railroad Class H6
The Pennsylvania Railroad's class H6, H6a, and H6b steam locomotives were of the 2-8-0 "Consolidation" freight type, the most numerous class on the railroad with 1,707 units and the second most prolific 2-8-0 class in North America, with the USATC S160 class rostering 88 units more. The three subclasses differed as follows: In the 1920s, 699 H6a and H6b had superheaters added, and cylinder size increased from to . These rebuilt units were reclassified to H6sa and H6sb. Class H6 were used throughout the system as mainline freight haulers, on local freights, and as switchers in yards. They were frequently seen double- and tripleheading long freight trains up the steep grades on the Pennsy.Westing, Fred. Pennsy Steam and Semaphores.

Pennsylvania Railroad E6 Class
Class E6 on the Pennsylvania Railroad was the final type of 4-4-2 "Atlantic" locomotive built by the railroad, and second only to the Milwaukee Road's streamlined class A in size, speed and power. Although quickly ceding top-flight trains to the larger K4s Pacifics, the E6 remained a popular locomotive on lesser services and some lasted to the end of steam on the PRR. One, #460, called the Lindbergh Engine, is preserved at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania. It was moved indoors to begin preparations for restoration on March 17, 2010. On January 10, 2011, PRR #460 was moved to the museum's restoration shop for a two- to three-year project, estimated to cost $350,000. The engine is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. "New life for old iron," January 11, 2011, Intelligencer Journal/New Era, Lancaster, PA Design The E6 was designed by the Pennsy's General Superintendent of Motive Power, Lines East, Alfred W.

Pennsylvania Railroad Class B6
The Pennsylvania Railroad's class B6 was its most successful class of switcher locomotive, or as the PRR termed them "shifter". The PRR preferred the 0-6-0 wheel arrangement for larger switchers, whereas on other railroads the 0-8-0 gained preference. The PRR generally used 2-8-0s when larger power was required. History Altoona Works constructed the prototype B6 in 1902. The B6 had the Pennsylvania's trademark square-shouldered Belpaire firebox and drivers. They were constructed as saturated steam engines, rebuilt with superheaters later as class B6s, and had Piston valves and Stephenson valve gear. A total of 79 were built by Baldwin and Lima, in addition to Altoona, between 1902 and 1913. The next version built was the B6sa, 55 of which were built at Altoona during 1913–1914. These had radial-stay fireboxes, common elsewhere but rare on the Pennsylvania, and they replaced the Stephenson gear with the more modern Walschaerts valve gear. Steam delivery pipes were o ...
