I recall 6 class R were converted to 0-6-0T.  They were retired by the mid 20"s.

  N&W didn't have any 0-6-0 tank switchers, but they did have two 0-6-2 tank switchers, nos. 92 and 93, that were the original class A.  They were both off the roster by 1899.

  Hi Mac;

   

  1. No.  In fact they did not have any 0-6-0 engines of any kind in general service.  The did have some 0-8-0T Side Tank engines rebuilt from W class 2-8-0 for use as shop switchers.  There may have been an 0-6-0 or two at tie plants.

   

  2. sorry - someone else will answer; I am away on business with no access to any resources other than memory.

  All,
  I have two quick questions actually.
  1. Did N&W use 0-6-0 Saddle Tank engines as switchers?
  2. How were N&W MOW units (cranes, diners, sleepers, etc) painted and decaled?
  Thank you,
  Yours aye,
  Macdonald,RB (Mac)
