If my memory is correct, that is its original number. I wonder if it still uses the dual controls.

It looked good in N & W but much better in yellow with a snow plow.
|
It is an outstanding paint scheme with a classic design.
|
It must still have its dual controls as it is not turned and runs long hood forward for half of its round trips.

Goes to show you that the yellowbird scheme looks good on about any engine.

I agree that this loco does look good in yellow! Great photo & I really like the semaphore signals. Something that I miss seeing over here in the UK! Although the odd one or two do survive here and there.

216 is not the original number. It was built as NW 1328 in 1965. It became Springfield Terminal 216 in 1993. Conway Scenic retained the number when they acquired it from ST.
