The newest release of the Warden book on the Y-Class mallet's has a lot of pictures from the Pocahontas Division and is a reasonably priced. They range from $20-$70+.<br>For a modeler, I'd suggest the first four books. <br>I'd suggest the last 3 for a real feel for the people who build and operated the railroad.<br><br><br><font style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3"><strong>N&W Y Class Articulated Steam Locomotives</strong></font><font style="font-weight:

Hey Everyone!<br><br>Your help is greatly needed! I am modeling the N&W Pocahontas division in HO for my model railroad. I want to model the transition era (such a great time to model with the peak of N&W Steam technology) but I need to know a basic fact that I am having trouble finding. I am pretty sure the N&W Switched to the Blue and Yellow paint scheme after the merger in 1965. However, I was wondering was it at this time that they switched from the script style circle emblem seen on the N&W HS emblem to the more simplified circle with the half circle areas filled in? I need to know so I can have the correct paint schemed early diesels doing the dirty work next to the steam engines. Thank you so much if you can help me out!!!<br><br>Logan Greene<br><br>________________________________________<br><a ymailto="mailto:NW-Modeling-List@nwhs.org" href="mailto:NW-Modeling-List@nwhs.org">NW-Modeling-List@nwhs.org</a><br>To change your
