Description

Many may not know his name, but they do know his work. Raymond Loewy put his imprint on everything from household appliances to the cars we drive.

In the 1930's, American design was modern and futuristic and at the forefront of it all was Raymond Loewy. His brilliant handling of Pennsylvania Railroad streamline locomotives made everything else look old and slow.

One of the great masterpieces of locomotive design work was the PRR S1 No. 6100. The S1 was designed by Raymond Loewy in 1939 and first appeared at the 1939 World's fair in Chicago and lettered American Railroads!
