The Y6b was a wonderful engine. But too slow to keep up with Western Schedules. One must wonder if the Alleys were sent west to get up and go instead of being wasted in Y6b country. But when something just has to be moved there were plenty of different options. I consider the B&O 2-10-2's known as the Big 6 a favorite because it helped passenger schedules over the hill in it's time. Not too many engines can do that.
