The Chesapeake & Ohio 2716 is a 2-8-4 steam locomotive that was built in 1943 by the American Locomotive Company for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. While most railroads referred to these locomotives as “Berkshires” the C&O referred to them as “Kanawhas” after the Kanawha River which flows through West Virginia. 2716 was one of ninety built for the C&O by Alco & the Lima Locomotive Works between 1943 and 1947.
