C&O 2-8-4 Kanawah Berkshire Steam Engine - Trains Magazine
Balt:
The engine at Washington Court House is not NKP. She is C&O K-4 2776. C&O didn't operate into Washington Court House either, but B&O did, and I speculate that this was about as close to a B&O loco as the town could get. I know it's a stretch. Actually, of the 12 existing C&O K-4's, seven (more than half) are displayed outside C&O territory.
2700 Dennison, Ohio (PRR station)
2705 Baltimore (B&O Museum)
2707 Union, IL (Illinois Ry Museum, on a former C&NW branch)
2716 New Haven, KY (Kentucky RR Museum, on a former L&N line)
2727 Kirkwood, MO (Nat. Mus. of Transp., on a former M.P. line)
2736 Green Bay, WI, (Nat. RR Mus. Green Bay was served by GB&W,
MILW, and C&NW)
2776 Washington Court House, OH
The two surviving P.M. Berkshires are in Michigan, which is appropriate.
Of the six surviving NKP Berkshires, four are located in NKP-served towns. The two others are:
NKP 757 at the RR Museum of PA at Strasburg, PA (NKP did, after all,
operate in PA)
NKP 759 at Steamtown, Scranton, PA
