Chesapeake Western Railway

I am trying to locate some pictures of the Chesapeake Western Baldwin units. I found a picture of a caboose but couldn't find much in the way of motive power. I find gob's of the "cut and paste" variety of the history but not too many pictures. In 1954, NW had purchased the line and replaced the Baldwins with Alco T-6's sometime after March of '58.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Bob,
Picked up a copy before I flew to Vegas, perfect! Now I just have to find a VO660!

Thanks for the help!

I think Hallmark made some in brass.  I know someone with one that may be willing to part with it.
