Remarks & Notes 
Still the best locomotive ever run by NS steam program (IMHO). Here the train is westbound entering the siding for a meet. Why yes, I am on the lead locomotive of the train they are meeting, by invitation. Despite bad coal and numerous stalls this was a magical weekend of fantrips in the Southwest Virginia (not south West Virginia, BTW) coal fields.

The Van Swearingen Brothers standarized freight power for their railroads with nearly identical 2-8-4 Berkshires. Two of these engines are still in excursion service.
