C&O 614 to VMT

[NW Mailing List]

"If somebody read another article that added the qualifier "the most modern commercially built steam locomotive", then produce that article, or were you just ticked because I insulted the lame stream media."

Mr. Phelps,
    Yes, there was an article that specifically said that the 614 was the "last commercially built locomotive in America". When I first read the blurb, I thought the same way you did. Then after reading it over the "commercially" qualifier finally registered in my mind, so I let it go at that.
    Now, whether or not it was the very "last commercially built locomotive", I have no idea. Where said article is, I also have no idea. I came across it via a link to some on-line forum to which I don't subscribe.
