No only M class 4-8-0s were there along with some of the W class 2-8-0s. Tony Putnam

The Blackberry is hard to see in the sunshine or my vision is failing.  Maybe both!

So I've settled on N-scale for the Abingdon Branch.
 
Quick question: Did any Y's, A's, or J's operate on the branch? I think I
remember reading that they were too heavy to go over the bridges.
 
I'm debating on the era so far, I'm probably going to do transition as I like
1st/2nd Generation diesels almost as much as steam.
 
I was showing my wife the OWL photos of the branch in late steam and she likes
the "rural" aspect of the line, I also think that it has great potential to be
done in a modular style "shelf" layout for portability.
 
Look forward to working out the track plan in the next few months and getting
started on a module hopefully this summer.
 
Thanks.
