<p>Hello,</p> <p>The move date for the Y6 has been confirmed by the Museum of Trasportation currator!</p> <p>The 2156 will be removed from the museum this Saturday, May 9th. The move will include an N&W auxilary tender, several period cars, and the tool car which will accomany the Y6a for the trip to Roanoke. The train is being built in downdown St. Louis as I speak. The Y6 will be leaving sometime between 9 or 10 AM, and the move will bring it back through Kirkwood.</p> <p>I will try as hard as I can to film and photograph the move from MOT, and possibly through Kirkwood. Will report back with the footage to post here.</p> <p>2156 will be going home for the first time in over 50 years. And will stay in Virginia at VMOT on loan to Norfolk-Southern for the duration of it's 5 year loan.</p> <p>I will be sad to see her leave, but we must all say good-bye at one point.</p> <p>-S. Connor.</p>
