PRR AAA-1 Triplex | v1.0

Description
"In the early to mid 1940's the Pennsylvania Railroad needed a powerful locomotive to assist in yard work in their various coal terminals. The Pennsy already had a large fleet of 0-6-0, 0-4-0, and 2-8-0 class switchers, but as war time freight traffic continued to escalate and the railroad requiring multiple locomotives to perform switching duties, it was clear a stronger locomotive was needed. Enter the AAA-1 Triplex, an experiment by the Pennsy to test if a single switcher locomotive could do the work of three. Only two AAA-1s were built, #2776 and #825, both performed well with switching duties, however light freight operations proved difficult due to the triplexes having a design flaw that limited their pulling power due to their great consumption of steam. Both AAA-1s were retired in 1951 and scrapped."

Hello Everyone!
The PRR Trixplex is a livery of Artman_12's Triplex model and a fictional PRR steam locomotive I made a few months ago. If you're in the Rolling Line discord you've probably seen a few screenshots of it floating around. Today I'm bringing it to you guys to tide you over until the T1 pack is ready. But also so I can tell you the current queue for the Pennsy project.

Now with that out of the way, I'd like to talk briefly about what to expect from me and Artman in the near future. First, the project Artman and I have been making models for now has an actual name, "The Keystone Project!" I will link the project workshop collection here to skip any confusion. Second, the project roadmap has been updated on my profile to include the FG-1, be sure to check that out to see the development status of our models. Lastly I want to give an update to what's coming down the pipeline in terms of content. First will be the T1 (obviously), Next will a massive patch/content update to the K4 pack, I don't want to give away what that will include just yet so stay tuned!. Next will be the S1 and after that who knows, I might look to you guys for some suggestions!

Anyways that's all for now, I hope you enjoy the AAA-1 and are excited for what's next! Also before I go, big thanks to Artman_12 for making the original triplex, go check it out if you haven't!

-Cheers!
