The Western Pacific Surviving Locomotive List
Where there are images available, links have been provided. In order to keep things simple in the small table boxes, I've used initials to represent photo credits for the images used. When there is more than one photo available, the initials will link to the additional images., and to indicate different images when there's more than one.
If you know of any additions or changes that need to be made to this list to keep it current, please email me.
