Here is a link to the google map of the wye in question: https://www.google.com/maps/@36.6006584 ... a=!3m1!1e3

Google has updated this map since the last time I looked at it. The wye does look in better shape now.

I can't imagine a steam locomotive any larger than 4501 being able to use it though. The southernmost leg of the wye is pretty tight.



Just as an fyi, 611 was never turned on that wye during the old program. They always turned it in Glade Spring and towed it backwards the 20 miles or so to Bristol. 4501 was turned on that wye in Bristol several times however.
