What are you looking at?
Actually, there is a drawing of its prototype in Model Railroader's Encyclopedia of Steam Locomotives. I've been wondering the same with that game's American engine! I swear I saw a green 4-4-0 like it somewhere before...

Close, but no Cigar. All of those Locomotives have Longer Smokeboxes, and don't have the Right Smokestack.

That's an easy one, it's a PRR H1. http://prr.railfan.net/diagrams/PRRdiagrams.html?diag=h1_oldi.gif&sel=ste&sz=sm&fr=
There you go whoever wants to make it, a drawing too. It's somewhere way down my list, but only if I'm forced to do it because nobody else does. Cumberland Valley had a few of those H-1s, and some of the similar H-2s. If anybody does the PRR one, I'll send some pictures of the CV versions.

Actually, it's 50". The 7'7 1/2" you saw was actually 77 1/2", and another dimension.
Ok,thanks!
I think this might be a good example of the first 2-8-0 locomotive but like I said earlier in the last post the LV had their first one in service in 1866 and the other railroads got theirs later, I see those 50' inch drivers that Simulatortrain was talking about probably restricted the locomotive to 60 mph which was fast in the early days of steam.
