This freight 4-6-0 was retired in June 1923. Originally a CF&YV locomotive, it was sold to the Southern as part of the A&Y and eventually became part of class E. Under Southern ownership it may have started as A&Y #26, but was renumbered #477 and then 936 by 1902. In 1903, it was renumbered to #1450 to fit with other acquired E class locomotives. In 1907 to make room for new Pacifics, the class was renumbered from #14xx to #34xx and this locomotive became #3450 until retirement.

Even though #28 did not go to the Southern when the CF&YV was split with the ACL after re-incorporating as the A&Y, it is likely identical or at least similar to #24-27 that did go to the Southern. Unknown location, photographer, or date from Allen collection. |

The photo of Southern 941 taken in 1934 (Tom Daspit collection), may be close to how the A&Y 26/Southern 3450 may have appeared. No known date, location, or photographer. |
