Industrial History: PRR's Engines Q1(4-6-4-4) and Q2(4-4-6-4)

Canadian Pacific Railway #2816, a 4-6-4 "Hudson"-type locomotive constructed by the Montreal Locomotive Works in 1930. Named the "Empress," 2816 was used in heavy passenger service until being retired in 1960 and donated to Steamtown. Returning to service in 2001 after extensive restoration and used in excursion service, the engine is the only surviving non-streamlined H1 Hudson.
