PRR H3 is a class of steam locomotives that were operated by the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) from the early 1900s to the 1950s. They were designed for both freight and passenger service, with a 4-4-0 wheel arrangement.
The H3 locomotives were built in several series by various manufacturers, including Baldwin Locomotive Works and Lima Locomotive Works. They were designed to be versatile and efficient, with a relatively small driving wheel diameter that allowed them to operate successfully on both mainline and branchline tracks.
The H3 locomotives were renowned for their reliability and durability, and many remained in service for several decades. Some were even converted to burn oil during World War II, which extended their service life.
Today, a few H3 locomotives survive and can be seen at various railroad museums around the country. They remain an important part of the history of American railroading and continue to be admired by railroad enthusiasts for their elegant design and outstanding performance.
