N&W Y6a 2156

[NW Mailing List]

Unfortunately, we do not have any tender lists that are after this time, but my observation is that most tenders on the bigger power, As, Js and later Ys did not change much after about 1952-53, perhaps only in the last days to get the last miles out of a working locomotive with a tender problem, would one be swapped out.

The only closeup photo of the rear that I have run across in the last couple of days was taken in Salem, VA on 5-12-15. No number on the tender in this photo. Just wondering if that's tender 220082?
