Here's another slide scanned from my collection.  Norfolk & Western Class A 2-6-6-4 #1218 is seen at Ashtabula, Ohio.  The photographer credit was "Chase."

That is a nice action shot.  The A's really had classic lines.
Thanks for the photo posting.

Amazing photo, it's still incredible to think that she was restored and ran for a good period of time.

Probably Nick Chase of Cleveland

According to David P. Morgan in TRAINS Magazine , the A was a "high-borne , high-pressure lady", and that the Y-6 just "had no figure control".

I see my favorite “Man O’ War” in the consist!
