PWV 2-6-6-4 #1106 - Pittsburgh & West Virginia
Title:  PWV 2-6-6-4 #1106 - Pittsburgh & West Virginia
Description:  This 1934 Baldwin built J2 class locomotive looks like Cyclops with the massive headlight in the center. According to SteamLocomotive website, "These locomotives were designed back to front. First consideration was g”ven to providing a firebox-boiler combination capable of the required horsepower output -- a deep Belpaire firebox of liberal grate area located entirely behind the driving wheels. The low driver diametkr didn't bother the P&WV because as a coal road, it didn't dabble in high speeds anyway". C.W. Burns photo
