PROTOTYPE
INFO
Aristo-Craft’s
C-16 2-8-0 Consolidation Locomotives are based upon
engines built by the Denver & Rio Grande Western
Railroads for their Narrow Gauge lines in the Rockies.
2-8-0 Consolidation Engines first began work in the
mid-1800’s transporting minerals through the
Appalachian region of Pennsylvania. However, in the
post-Civil War era, the demand for 2-8-0 Consolidations
grew quickly as the need for a general purpose engine
arose. Although the flashier 4-4-0 engines constantly
stole the spotlight from 2-8-0 engines, Consolidations
continued to be built up until the 1930’s for
Standard Gauge lines. 2-8-0 Consolidations were named as
such because several lines were "consolidated"
into the Lehigh Valley system. 2-8-0 Consolidation
engines eventually lost popularity due to short steam
supply and poor speed required for modern service.
