Strasburg Rail Road (Great Western) No. 90 is a 2-10-0 "Decapod" type steam locomotive owned and operated by the Strasburg Rail Road outside of Strasburg, Pennsylvania. Built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1924, No. 90 originally pulled sugar beet trains for the Great Western Railway of Colorado. In 1967, No. 90 was sold to the Strasburg Rail Road where it now resides and operates today for use on excursion trains. As of today, No. 90 is one of only two operational Decapod type steam locomotives in America, the other being Frisco No. 1630 at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, Illinois.
The locomotive was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in June 1924, in Philadelphia. it originally pulled sugar beet trains of about 40 to 50 cars length for the Great Western Railway of Colorado to the company's towering mill in Loveland, Colorado. It was the Great Western's largest and most powerful road locomotive, and saw extensive use on trains too large for the company's fleet of 2-8-0s. On November 7, 1944, the engine was hit by a truck at a grade crossing east of Loveland and knocked onto its fireman's side, killing both the fireman and the truck driver. The Great Western sent 90 to the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad's shops in Denver for repairs. Following WWII, the locomotive was used primarily in the Autumn during the harvest season.
By the late 1950s, the engine was occasionally used in excursion service on the Great Western. In 1963, No. 90 pulled a few special excursions for that year's National Railway Historical Society Convention, were it was held in Denver at the time. On one such excursion, Strasburg Rail Road's Chief Mechanical Officer, Huber Leath, met the Great Western's superintendent, a man who grew up in the vicinity of the Strasburg Rail Road and struck a deal in which the Great Western would contact the Strasburg Rail Road as soon as the engine was available for purchase. The Strasburg Rail Road purchased No. 90 on April 5, 1967, for a price of $23,000.00(~$175,000 in 2019) and the locomotive arrived on Strasburg's property a month later on May 5, 1967.
In the winter of 1968, Ross Rowland's High Iron Company planned to operate a series of mainline steam excursions between Jersey City, New Jersey and Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania on the Central Railroad of New Jersey. Rowland had originally planned to lease two ex Canadian Pacific G5-class 4-6-2s, numbers 1238 and 1286, both owned by George M. Hart. However, those two locomotives were on emergency leases to the city of Reading, Pennsylvania to provide steam for the city after the boiler at the Reading Steam Heat and Power Co. became disabled. Since tickets for the excursion had already been sold, and Rowland was unwilling to pull the trip with a diesel, he leased Steamtown's ex Canadian Pacific 127 (formerly 1278), a sister to the two locomotives he intended to use to pull the train. However, the 127 did not have enough power to pull the train over the grades on the CNJ near Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania on her own and Rowland leased the 90 to act as a helper engine for the trips, double-heading with the 127 between Bethlehem and Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. After the trips concluded, No. 90 was returned to Strasburg.
As it was on the Great Western, the engine is also the most powerful of the four steam locomotives in operation at the Strasburg Rail Road in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, rated for 1,211 tons on the line. It is currently one of the only two 2-10-0 Decapods operating in the United States, the other one is former Frisco No. 1630, which operates at the Illinois Railway Museum.
No. 90 has had numerous modifications during its time at Strasburg, the most recent being in 2013, in which it was repainted in a new paint scheme similar to what it originally wore back in the 1990s. Differences include the yellow pin striping and lettering, which is currently painted / stenciled in white. Its smokebox was painted silver, and its number plate was black. In 2015, No. 90 went through another modification, where its smokebox color changed from silver to brown. After this modification, 90 was to return to service in February 2016. As of January 2023, No. 90 is still operational, but in early 2024, it is currently undergo its Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) federally mandated 1,472-day boiler inspection and overhaul.

The ESU Full Throttle Steam files now include a few new logic features for added operational realism while still leaving you in control of HOW YOU wish to run your locomotive.
Heavy Load: F9 by default.
Similar to the “Drive Hold” button on the Full Throttle Diesel files “Heavy Load” allows you to adjust the “Steam Cut Off Valve” at any speed allowing for a fierce full chuff or drifting with snifters and rod clanks. Heavy load can also act as an offset allowing speed adjustments when engaged if desired.
Coast: F4 by default.
Opposite of “Heavy Load” Coast allows for a negative offset allow drifting sounds of Rods and snifter valves at any speed. You again have the option to hold the speed to adjust the speed with this offset active. Even allowing for an increase of speed with no chuffs as if drifting downhill.
Independent brake: F10 by default
Identical to the Full Throttle Diesel files. This allows for the locomotive to stop more quickly than its regular momentum would normally carry it. This one is pretty self-explanatory – just press the brake and come to a stop! For additional options there are 3 Braking rates that can be set up for user preference.
Articulation: Sound Slot 2
By adding Sound Slot 2 to the F8 Function Mapping and enabling the "Secondary Trigger" (CV250) you can add a second set of drivers making any ESU Steam File articulated.
Function Mappable Air Horn: F21 by default
Sound Slot 21.
Many Steam locomotives had a single chime airhorn equipped. Those modelling SP, MILW, and others can now have this feature and put it where they would like in the function mapping in addition to the whistle.

Canadian National No. 7470 is a O-18a class 0-6-0 "Switcher" type steam locomotive that currently works on the Conway Scenic Railroad in North Conway, New Hampshire.
7470 was built by the Grand Trunk Railway Point St. Charles Shops at Montreal, Quebec in June 1921. The Grand Trunk classified the switcher as F9 Class and numbered it as Grand Trunk Railway No. 1795. It soon became and renumbered as Canadian National No. 7470 when the Canadian National Railway absorbed the Grand Trunk in 1923, they reclassified it as a Class 0-18-a.
7470 was originally spared scrapping, until it was saved by being sold to the Canada Dominion Sugar, where it spent some additional years as a switcher. Later, in May 1963, it was purchased by the Ontario government for a transportation museum in Canada, but that never came to fruition.
7470 was acquired in 1968 by Dwight Smith, and in 1974 joined the Conway Scenic Railroad and renumbered as No. 47. It was renumbered back to No. 7470 in the mid 1980's. Today, No. 7470 is used primarily to power the Conway-bound Valley Trains during the autumn seasons, as well as special excursions such as Steam in the Snow. It has also pulled the Notch Train on special occasions, recently as of 2011.
No. 7470 made its last run on January 15, 2015 of its Steam in the Snow event and was out of service from 2015 to 2019 for its 15-year major federally mandated inspection and overhaul. No. 7470 returned to active service again on June 1, 2019 and made its first test runs under its own power for the first time since January 2015.

This is a 2-6-6-2T articulated Mallet that was built by The Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1926.
Pacific Northwest steam historian Martin Hansen offers this perspective: “This 1926 Baldwin 2-6-6-2T spent her entire working career in logging service in the Pacific Northwest. Originally ordered as a coal burner for the Potlach Lumber Co. of Potlach, Idaho where she was No. 24, she later converted to burn oil when she was purchased by Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. for use on that company’s Headquarters Operation out of Longview, Wash., where she became No. 108. She was one of only three Baldwin logging Mallets to be built with full saddle tanks over her boiler, rather than the more common split side tanks found on other tank Mallets of the day.”
The restoration on 108 was completed in 2020 and ran together with the ,110 another 2-6-6-2T, on the Blck Hills Central Railroads first double header.
True Mallet Locomotives are compound locomotives utilizing the steam multiple times. Because the exhaust from the first cylinders (high pressure) gets reused by the next set of cylinders (low pressure) the "double chuff" often associated with articulated locomotives is not really present. They are heard in the more common "simple" type articulated locomotives which are easier to mantain.
While recorded from a 2-6-6-2T this file can be used for simiar Compound Mallet type locomotives.

Recorded from Chinese QJ
Whistles from Iowa Interstate #6988
The QJ (Chinese: 前进; pinyin: Qián Jìn; lit. 'To go forward" or "to advance') was a type of heavy freight steam locomotive used by China Railway. The majority were built by Datong locomotive factory. The prototypes and early production of the class were designated HP (Chinese: 和平; pinyin: Hé Píng; lit. 'peace'), being redesignated as FD (Chinese: 反帝; pinyin: Fǎn Dì; lit. 'Anti-Imperialism') class during the Cultural Revolution, before becoming the QJ class in 1971.
The class became the primary mainline freight locomotive on the Chinese rail network by the 1980s, and were then displaced by diesel locomotives in 2005. After the end of steam on the national Chinese railway network many QJ locomotives were used on industrial lines, as well as on the Jitong railway. Several of the class have been preserved.
Two units withdrawn from use in China, numbers 6988 and 7081 (both former Jitong Railway), were originally acquired by the Iowa Interstate Railroad and later donated to Central States Steam Preservation Association.[12][13] A third, number 7040 (re-numbered to 2008), was acquired by the Lexington, Kentucky-based R.J. Corman Railroad Group in 2008, and operated until 2013, when it was placed on display in a specially built glass display building in Lexington.[14] In 2020, Corman donated the engine to the Kentucky Steam Heritage Corporation.[15]
Iowa Interstate 7081 retains its original Chinese appearance with the exception of the Jitong lettering and logo being replaced with the Iowa Interstate's, and the mandatory changes required by U.S. law such as hand rails and a bell. IAIS 6988 was "Americanized" in time for operation at Train Festival 2011 in Rock Island, Illinois. The diesel-style bell originally installed when it arrived in Iowa was replaced with a steam engine type bell, the Chinese headlights were replaced with an American style light with a cast number plate under it, and an American steam whistle was installed. The steel sheet on the front was removed and all red paint was painted over in black, with white trim on the running boards, wheel rims, etc. The R.J. Corman locomotive has been heavily modified. Most notably the smoke deflectors have been removed along with new paint and skirts along the running boards.
This file is set up for the American Iowa Interstate 6988 version with 3 whistles recorded from that loco.
While recorded from a 2-10-2 Chinese QJ this file can be used for large "2-10-2" "Santa Fe" type or other large locomotives in many wheel arrangments.

Similar to the “Drive Hold” button on the Full Throttle Diesel files “Heavy Load” allows you to adjust the “Steam Cut Off Valve” at any speed allowing for a fierce full chuff or drifting with snifters and rod clanks. Heavy load can also act as an offset allowing speed adjustments when engaged if desired.
Coast: F4 by default.
Opposite of “Heavy Load” Coast allows for a negative offset allow drifting sounds of Rods and snifter valves at any speed. You again have the option to hold the speed to adjust the speed with this offset active. Even allowing for an increase of speed with no chuffs as if drifting downhill.
Independent brake: F10 by default
Identical to the Full Throttle Diesel files. This allows for the locomotive to stop more quickly than its regular momentum would normally carry it. This one is pretty self-explanatory – just press the brake and come to a stop! For additional options there are 3 Braking rates that can be set up for user preference.
Articulation: Sound Slot 2
By adding Sound Slot 2 to the F8 Function Mapping and enabling the "Secondary Trigger" (CV250) you can add a second set of drivers making any ESU Steam File articulated.
Function Mappable Air Horn: F21 by default
Sound Slot 21.
Many Steam locomotives had a single chime airhorn equipped. Those modelling SP, MILW, and others can now have this feature and put it where they would like in the function mapping in addition to the whistle.

We would like to give a special thanks to the LRR for their help in this project. To find out more about their operation or to book a ride please go to: https://littleriverrailroad.com/
Number 110 was the flagship stem locomotive of the Little River Railroad. It was special ordered by Colonel W. B. Townsend, so as to combine the power of a logging (Shay) locomotive with the speed of a traditional passenger train locomotive. It was further distinguished by the fact that it was the smallest Pacific type engine ever built in the United States to run on standard gauge track.
While recorded from a 1911 4-6-2 Pacific this file can be used for smaller locomotives in many wheel arrangments.

Recorded from D&RGW #346
We would like to give a special thanks to the Colorado Railroad Museum for their help in this project. To find out more about their operation or to book a ride please go to: https://coloradorailroadmuseum.org/
The history of the Class 70/74/C-19 locomotives is confusing at best. All built as narrow gauge consolidations in 1881, some were converted to standard gauge at the end of that decade (1889). Eleven years later, in 1900, they were all switched back to narrow gauge and put back into the original 400-411 series of numbers, but were not given their original numbers back.
In early 1936, the D&RGW leased three C-19s - 343, 345, and 346 - to the C&S. C&S had wrecked engines 73 and 75 on Boreas Pass in Jan 1936, and due to weather conditions would be unable to retrieve them until spring. During their time on the C&S, all three received C&S Ridgway spark arrestors, and at least 346 had half flanges turned into its blind drivers to help with adhesion. 346 was wrecked a mile below Kenosha Pass on 25 Jul 1936, but was subsequently rebuilt by the C&S shops and continued in lease service right up until the end of the C&S narrow gauge in Apr 1937. At that point, all three were returned to the D&RGW.
#346 now lives at the Colorado Railroad Museum where is runs regularly.
While recorded from an early 2-8-0 this file can be used for smaller locomotives in many wheel arrangments.
