The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In conjunction with the P Motors, the Rs marked the second generation of electric locomotives built for the New York Central.
- Also like the P Motors they used advanced nose suspended traction motors and the R-2s were some of the first North American locomotives to make use of the C-C wheel arrangement, which later became the standard for diesel electric road freight.
- The first R Motor was developed as a response to the Kaufman Act which banned steam locomotive use throughout the city and required the New York Central to eliminate street running along its 10th Avenue freight route.
