3D model description

The J1a Texas locomotive was a class of steam locomotive operated by the Norfolk and Western Railway (N&W) in the United States. The designation "Texas" indicates that these locomotives had a 2-10-4 wheel arrangement, which was commonly referred to as "Texas" in steam locomotive nomenclature.

These locomotives were known for their large size and ability to tow heavy freight trains through difficult terrain. The 2-10-4 arrangement meant that the locomotive had two guide wheels at the front, ten driving wheels in the center, and four carrying wheels at the rear. This arrangement provided great tractive power and stability on rail lines with steep grades and sharp curves.

J1a Texas locomotives were used primarily on freight services on the Norfolk and Western Railway network. They were sturdy and reliable locomotives that played an important role in freight haulage along the N&W's rail routes.

Although no longer in active service, some J1a Texas locomotives have been preserved and restored for display in railroad museums, allowing people to appreciate the history and engineering of these impressive steam engines.
