A T1 for a T-1? On April 3-4, American Steam Railroad fired up Ex Reading T-1 4-8-4 in Cleveland, OH for the first time in nearly 20 years. After $1.6 million dollar rebuild, steam was made. Several of the PRR T1 Trust members were part of the restoration crew and were present for steam tests. The 2100 has her Reading 6 Chime Whistle, but also carried the whistle for the new PRR T1, #5550. You can hear the PRR whistle below.

It you see a large steam locomotive firebox on Interstate 70 between Ohio and St. Louis snap a picture and send it to us. It will be joined up with the rest of the boiler very soon. Help us if you get a chance and donate so we can keep doing these huge projects. We are well on our way to hitting our Summer goals. | Pennsylvania Railroad T1 Steam Locomotive Trust
