The Alco S4 were 1,000 horsepower diesel electric switcher locomotives produced by Alco and Canadian licensee Montreal Locomotive Works. This locomotive was powered by an Alco 539 turbocharged 6 cylinder diesel engine and the S4 has standard AAR type A switcher trucks. Alco's 1,000-HP S4 switcher was the fourth entry in the company's highly successful "S" series of diesels. Their sturdy construction and ease of maintenance made them popular with a wide variety of railroads. The Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad, P&LE or PLE was also known as the "Little Giant" and was formed on May 11, 1875 with company headquarters were located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The line connected Pittsburgh in the east with Youngstown, Ohio at nearby Haselton, Ohio in the west and Connellsville, Pennsylvania to the east. The P&LE was known as the "Little Giant" since the tonnage that it moved was out of proportion to its route mileage. While it operated around one tenth of one percent of the nation's railroad miles, it hauled around one percent of its tonnage. This was largely because the P&LE served the steel mills of the greater Pittsburgh area, which consumed and shipped vast amounts of material. It was a specialized railroad deriving much of its revenue from coal, coke, iron ore, limestone, and steel. The eventual closure of the steel mills led to the end of the P&LE as an independent line in 1992.
