History In June 1937, the Pennsy acquired its first diesel locomotive: a 600-hp diesel-electric switch engine from Electro-Motive Corporation (EMC), a predecessor of General Motors Electro-Motive Division (EMD). EMC called it an SW model; the railroad dubbed it class ES6. The Pennsy bought its second diesel, another switcher, in October 1941: an EMD NW2 (Pennsy class ES10). Wartime restrictions soon restricted locomotive builders' production of diesels intended for freight service. Still, the Pennsy managed to add 15 Baldwin switchers and one EMD switcher. After the war, the Pennsy began to buy diesel locomotives in earnest. From 1945 through 1947, the railroad bought roughly 100 switcher, freight, and passenger diesels from various builders, then another 800 or so (total) in 1948 and 1949 Passenger EMD E7 Alco PA1/PB1 Baldwin DR-6-4-2000 Baldwin DR-12-8-1500/2 EMD E8A EMD FP7

I'm not always in the mood to drive these heavy US freight trains, so if there'd be some passenger trains thrown in the mix, that'd make for an interesting route.
Ny to Washington was a prr main line back in the day. I’m sure there was lots of freight as well as the passenger services back in the 50s. You could even throw in a prr k4 in there for steam variety.
These locomotives are suited for Horseshoe curve PRR era. When it comes to F7 the PRR version can be made as a reskin of the ATSF Cajon Pass version.
I would like to add PRR FM H-24-66 Trainmasters and other FMs. An SD7 or SD9 "Cadillac" would be great to see handling freight as well.
