==Locomotives==
The initial products were noted for their up to the minute designs and were well received. The first two locomotives went to the Hudson River Railroad in 1853. Named the Superior and the Baltic they were very large for their time, weighing 29 tons and were fitted with 78 inch driving wheels. They also featured advanced features such as straight top boilers, front end throttles and more heating surface than most contemporary locomotives.〔''The American Steam Locomotive'' by John S White Jr., Johns Hopkins Press 1968〕
