LIONEL TRAINS 6-38083 NORFOLK & WESTERN SCALE Y-3 2-8-8-2 LOCOMOTIVE & TENDER, During World War I, the United States Railroad Administration based its 2-8-8-2 Mallet type on a Norfolk & Western design. After receiving their allotment of 50 USRA 2-8-8-2 locomotives in 1919, the N & W refined them further into their Y-3 class. They served on Appalachian rails through the 1950s. The second-hand locomotives even received the distinctive Pennsy keystone numberplate. Both versions include an all-new, prototypical 18,000 gallon fishbelly tender with a lighted brakeman's doghouse.
