Looking back more than 50 years, it's unfortunate that N&W lacked the 'preservation' instinct of the PRR.
Of modern N&W steam, only one J survived; the A exists more by accident than by intent, and the Y is hundreds of miles from 'home'.  (But I now live in MO and can visit the Y frequently).  Chances of seeing the big three side-by-side once more are as slim of any of the three operating 'one more time'.  Personally, I'm thankful for the decade during which the J and the A did their 'Encore in Steam'.

Looks like that it is receiving good care. 
This old man sure would like to see the three big ones together just one more time..
