Galveston - Texas Limited #200

Galveston TX

Texas Limited Engines 100 and 200

The Texas Limited passenger train made runs from Houston to Galveston until track speed
restrictions and liability insurance costs ended operations. The engines are back to back,
allowing the engines to run around the consist when a destination is reached and have
a cab end facing forward for the return trip. The engines can also be separated and operate
in a push-pull mode, with one engine on each end of the train.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

We don't have nearly so many locomotives hauling passenger trains now - the power systems are generally built into the coaches - not the same is it!
