Realizing that diesel power was proving to be quite cost effective on other railroads, the Pennsylvania Railroad experimented with ways to make steam power more competitive with the diesel revolution. One bold new design deriving from the PRR's efforts was the S-2 Steam Turbine. While the S-2 still had a firebox and boiler and still generated steam, the pressure was run through a turbine instead of reciprocating cylinders to make power. The turbine design provided smooth and constant power to the drive wheels and at higher speeds, proved to be much more efficient than traditional steam locomotives. Despite its high-speed efficiency, the S-2 still retained many of the high costs of operating a steam engine. And, as we all know, the diesel eventually won out.
