"M" Class locomotives

I did a presentation of the history on classes M, M1 and M2's at the 2006 N&WHS Convention at Strasburg. That presentation was published in The Arrow Vol 22 No 5. This article covers the use of the M classes in some detail throughout their life on the N&W.

I did a little more poking around and found that Mr. Dressler had a 3 part series on the M in the "Arrow" If you don't have the copies they are Vol. 5 issue 5, Vol. 6 issue 1 and 3.

Thank you for your answer sir.

I don't see much about the subject, but It seems that the class"M" locomotive was the common work horse even after the mallets were introduced, I assume mostly on branch lines.

Gene: It appears that the M's and M1's were all hand fired, the M2a,b,c (Roanoke built were fitted with stokers)

Were any of the "M" class locomotives ever fitted with stokers?
