Unit?  UNIT?????

Sorry, Mike.  Steam locomotives are not UNITS!

Diesels are units, and sometimes electrics are units.  But steam locomotives?

Never!

  Many thanks, Bud. I did not realize that it was originally a N&W unit prior to V-C.

    It is. The tender flank is stencilled Virginia Carolina. The V-C got the N&W's Class G-1 #201 in 1917, renumbered the engine to #7 and the N&W took over the V-C in '21 and retained the number 7. Number 7 is the engine today at Bluefield.
