==Prototype information==
[[Image:superd.jpg|right|240px]]Heavy minerals (coal) traffic was, and remains, the backbone of many railways.  Specialised engines with low costs, low speeds, and high-tractive effort are ideal for hauling heavy loads over rough terrain.

The model used for PJ1K is the classic [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LNWR_G_Class LNWR "Super D"].
