This
image of the 2156, a class Y6a, was taken in May 1942 at the time
of building in the Roanoke workshops of the N&W Railway. This
engine epitomised the successful incorporation of every modern
device to make the steam road locomotive efficient and available.
One of a class of 16, this is the only survivor. You can view
her at the St Louis Museum of Transportation.
