Pennsylvania No. 5741

The Pennsylvania RR No. 5741 is a class G5s 4-6-0 "Ten Wheeler" built in 1924 at the PRR's Juniata Shops.
The G5s class was designed by William F. Keisel, the railroad's chief engineer, for commuter service - a task which required speed, power and the ability to stop and start frequently.
It was the most powerful ten-wheeler produced in the US and became the standard PRR commuter locomotive until it was superseded by diesel locomotives in the 1950s.
Today it's on static display at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania.
==Trivia==
*This locomotive is the only remaining G5s from the Pennsylvania Railroad, although it did often venture onto the PRR's subsidiary line, the Long Island Railroad (LIRR), especially in its later years.
*This locomotive is a cousin to Long Island Railroad No. 39 and No. 35 who are both undergoing restoration to operating condition.
