additional information for the diesel roster.

All 200 series FMs used for trade in credit (ultimately scrapped) or simply scrapped under N&W ownership (post 1964) A few worked until the early 70's, but at Lamberts point Virginia where the N&W consolidated FM opperations (parts supply, etc.) Most can be found in the N&W diesel book xxx to 1982.

500-504 FMs all scrapped under N&W ownership, otherwise they had the same fate as the 200 series.

506-508, the ex-P&WV units, sold back to N&W and used for trade in credit on new diesel purchases (ultimately scrapped).

505, the newest of AC&Y's H20s and the last H20 built, was sold to Southwestern Portland Cement (they also purchased two H20's from UP) and renumbered to 410. The unit was retired 10/84 and is now on display at the Center for Transportaion & Commerce in Galveston, Texas. Unit is unfortunately on display in UP paint.
