However, the infamous #s2143,2174 & 2189 were at United Iron and Metal near 4th and Albemarle. The yard sat North of the diamond at JK between the Virginian and N&W mains. Don't believe that Mr. Golden was involved with United....but I could be wrong.<br><div> </div><br><div><br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> NW Mailing List <nw-mailing-list@nwhs.org><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> nw-mailing-list@nwhs.org<br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b>

Was United Iron & Metal also owned by Sam Golden of Virginia Scrap Iron & Metal before the sale, or were they two completely separate operations? I've been told once or twice over the years that the Y6's were in Sam Golden's Norwich yard (the one that still has the N&W steam crane sitting in it). Sounds like that information might have been wrong? If so, I'll need to make a correction or two on the Lost Engines site.<br><br>Richard Jenkins<br><br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16,

The <br>two locomotive, 2143 and 2174 were at United Iron and Metal, not <br>Virginia Scrap Iron and Metal.
