N&W Loco in Movie "Giant"

[NW Mailing List]

It was the 100. Sorry you apparantly missed the recent thread about it on this 
list. Was lettered C&O on one side only, since movie did not need to shoot other 
side. Irony was that the tender had been bought from the C&O a couple of years 
earlier.(nee PM Berkshire tender)

K-1 was used in the motion picture "Giant" in 1956.  The movie starred Rock 
Hudson, Elizabeth Taylor, and James Dean.  The locomotive is lettered Chesapeake 
and Ohio and is shown in the opening scenes.  I just noticed it tonight and it 
took me by surprise. :o)"
