About In the mid-1920s the Virginian Railway had adopted an 11 kV 25 Hz AC electrification for its coal-heavy main line between Mullens, West Virginia and Roanoke, Virginia. To work this line the Virginian bought 36 EL-3A boxcab locomotives from Westinghouse.The Virginian added four EL-2B locomotives from General Electric after World War II, but the original fleet was showing its age.In the mid-1950s the Virginian decided to continue electrification in lieu of dieselization, and ordered new locomotives from GE to replace the original boxcabs. The route is 216.90 km (134.77 mi) Rollingstock Virginian EL-C Virginian EL-2B

Lastly painting it again in Orange New Haven RR Colours like TSC
