Oldest steam locomotive in Virginia

Bob:
There's a picture of the 231 in Staufer, Shuster and Huddleston's
book, C&O Power p. 210.  There appears to be  an error in the caption- 
"Classed A-5, it was scrapped in 1925".  The data I read about  the
collapse was from an article in the RL&HS  Bulletin.  Seems 10 or
so employees were also killed. Does anyone recall if they're still in  the
tunnel ?  On Church Hill, you can see craters created when the  blue
marl failed to support the bore.
