Built for the Pennsylvania Railroad, the B6 class was a rugged 0-6-0 steam switcher designed to handle yard duties and short transfer runs with ease. These locomotives were the backbone of PRR’s terminal and industrial switching fleet from the early 1900s through the steam era’s twilight.
The B6 combined a compact frame with impressive tractive effort, making it ideal for tight yards and heavy cuts of freight cars. With its signature Belpaire firebox, classic PRR styling, and powerful yet practical design, the B6 was an iconic sight in yards across the Northeast and Midwest.
This model has been faithfully recreated for Trainz, capturing the distinctive proportions and detailing of the B6 class. It’s perfect for anyone who loves PRR steam or enjoys operating prototypical switching scenarios.
