Title: |
Hammerhead |
Description: |
This RS 2 was delivered to LV with both a steam generator and dynamic brakes. The space required by having both made this extra high short hood necessary, giving the unit its obvious nickname. It is now at the Rochester & Genesee Valley museum in Industry NY, and will eventually be repainted into LV colors. |

Title: |
Rare unit |
Description: |
A long hood view of ex LV 211, the "hammerhead", so called for its full height short hood to accommodate a steam generator and dynamic brakes. Fortunately, it kept the high hood when it went through the Dewitt Geep program when CR had it. |
