That is N&W's experimental switcher. There were 2 of them #1100 built April 1947, and #1112 built September 1948. Both switcher came from totally rebuilt M2's. N&W was tring to save money by rebuilding older power and experimenting with new designs. The 2 switchers worked ok, but when N&W bought 30 Class S1 0-8-0 switchers from C&O, and dicovered how good the C&O S1's were, #1100 and #1112 met the scrapper in 1951. Happy Rails Patrick

Now, now, Jeff. Don't judge a book by it's cover. I like it. Looks kinda cartoony...kinda like something from a Max Fleischer cartoon. ( black and white Popeyes and Betty Boops). Tim
