Remarks & Notes 
When a class of locomotive had dwindled in numbers, and those remaining were no longer considered roadworthy, the Norfolk & Western often assigned them to Lambert’s Point to push hoppers of coal into the car dumpers. The ex-Nickel Plate RSD12’s ended up at Lamberts Point in the late 1970’s to finish their lives. Here, N&W 250 shows stripes from its original identity as NKP 325, and well as its post-merger number of 2325.
