Monterey Shops Trainz
The Comanche & Monterey Mn Class was a class of 7 USRA Mountain Copies built in 1919. They were used in the LA to Alberquerque line of the railroad for Dual Service. Following railroad tradition of using latin names, they were called the "Mons", translating to mountain in Latin.
Being well liked by crews, and being separated by types of service, the class was kept in service until the early 1950s where they were first retired.
of the 7 mn class mountains, only 2 survive:
​
#1067 is operated by the pacific locomotive association.
#1066 is on display on the Lake Hollywood Park.
