I recently can across the following report on locomotive testing of an Atlantic E2a, and have found it very interesting reading, as well as a "reality" check for the performance characteristics of OR.

Altoona E2a Test Report

I have two follow questions that I am hoping somebody might be able to help me with.

Firstly, does anybody have published load tables for the PRR E2a, against relevant ruling gradients? What was the maximum load that it could pull?

Secondly, has anybody come across any other similar reports?

Cheers

Peter
