M-2s' On the Abingdon Branch

[NW Mailing List]

My guess is that the M2's were too heavy for the branch.   Jim Nichols

Were M-2's ever used on the Abingdon (Virginia-Carolina/Virginia Creeper)
Branch ?  I can't recall ever seeing M-2's in any pictures of steam
operations on the line.  Virtually all the pictures I have seen show the
older, smaller M's or M-1's.
