Two N&W Y6b's were scrapped in Roanoke about this time. It's crazy at least one of those didn't get saved.


See the last page of the "Steam Crane Weight" thread for more info on the Y6's

I agree...thankfully we still have the Y6a 2156 and the Y3a 2050 at the IRM.

The MILW modified old tenders into MoW cars, such as snowplows. I have seen pictures of these cars from the late 1960s, so I presume it was these modified tenders that were scrapped in the mid-1970s.
