Pennsylvania Railroad class D1
The Pennsylvania Railroad's steam locomotive class D1 comprised thirteen 4-4-0 locomotives for express passenger service, constructed at the railroad's own Altoona Works during 1868–1872.
They were the first standardized class of locomotives on the railroad and shared many parts with other standard classes.
The PRR was the first American railroad to adopt the Westinghouse air brake, the first tests of which were made in September 1869; Class A locomotives were among those fitted with air brake equipment for those earliest tests.
