CO Time for another quiz

What steam engine wheel arrangement did the C&O have the most of?
And it wasnt 2-6-6-6!! And no cheating!!


:tb-wink:

 

2-8-0 Consolidations, 460 of them!
How many Mohawks did NY Central have?
:tb-biggrin:

 

Actually, there were 475 Consolidations on the C&O roster in 1915.

 

We have a winner!!!!!!!!!!!

:thumbs_up:


Fitz is the winner!! In total the C&O had over 600 and service spanned over 75 years starting in 1881!!

:tb-rolleyes:

 

Thanks. Oldrk, great pix of you and Kathy with the 1225, one of my (many) favorite steamers. C&O actually had more of the consols?
To continue the contest, can anyone answer my question?
:tb-confused:

 

I just opened my book C&O Power - it says:
"In all over 600 2-8-0's came under C&O ownership and they were destined to be the freight power for 30 years while their service span extended through 75 years."

 

Hemi, you're WAY low. :tb-biggrin:

 

:tb-wink:Yes, 4-8-2's. Getting closer.:tb-wink:

 

Around 600 Mohawks, weren't there?

 

We have another winner--Triplex! 600 it was.
