NORFOLK & WESTERN LEGACY Y6B #

Norfolk & Western Y6B 2-8-8-2 Steam Locomotive – Road Number 2188 A true titan of steam, the Y6B 2-8-8-2 was one of the last great articulated locomotives built in America. Introduced between 1948 and 1952, these powerful engines were designed for strength and efficiency at a time when most railroads had already transitioned to diesel. Locomotive No. 2188 represents the later version of the class, featuring a retrofit smokebox and upgraded detailing.
