Built between 1914 and 1919, the Pennsylvania Railroad's fleet of L1s Mikados hauled freight through two world wars and served until the end of steam in 1957. The Walschaert valve gear was reversed by a heavy screw mechanism and the large firebox was hand shoveled. By the early 1930's the Interstate Commerce Commission had mandated the use of power reverse gear. The addition of this mechanism to the engineer's side of the engine pushed the air tank to the front of the boiler, giving the L1s the characteristic face it wore in later years. Many, but not all, Mikados eventually received coal stokers to feed the firebox, adding about 1000 horses to their original potential of about 2700 horsepower. Over level or moderately hilly terrain, an L1s could handle a 70 - 80 car freight train. When every piece of available power was needed during World War II, Mikados that were still hand-fired had two firemen shoveling coal. Many of the dependable Mikes worked in branch line, helper, and even rail fan service until the end of steam on the Pennsylvania Railroad. New to the Premier line for 2007, MTH announces the Pennsylvania Railroad L1s Mikado, accurately scaled from engine #520 that resides today in the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania.
