Class J 4-8-4 Locomotive from
Norfolk and Western Railroad

Built by the Norfolk and Western Railroad, USA, this Super Loco is 109 feet long 16 feet high and weighs 396 tons. A policy of expert maintenance enabled this loco to almost defeat the invasion of the diesel. An account of the last run of No. 611 is given at :-

It is very difficult to believe that this loco will not be put back on the rails sometime in the future!
