<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Generally for the A, J and Y6's, about one
locomotive per month. During WWII, it was about one per every 2-3 weeks.
For the S1a's, three were built about every two months.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This new construction was done along with the other
locomotives receiving classified repairs, often the same shop personnel
performing both simultaneously.</FONT></DIV>
