The D5 (formerly Class G, pre-1895) comprised eighteen lightweight 4-4-0 locomotives for light duty, maintenance-of-way and branch-line service, constructed at the railroad's own Altoona Works (now owned by Norfolk Southern) during 1870–1873 for the Pennsylvania Railroad.

These engines shared many parts with other standard classes, although less so with the heavy 4-4-0s on account of their lighter build; instead, they shared some components with 0-6-0 switcher classes F and H (later B1 and B2).

None of these engines were around anymore because they were cut up for scrap.

Trivia[]

  • The Class G locomotives had a straight-topped boiler, unlike the wagon-top of the other 4-4-0 classes.
