I want to thank all who responded to my recent inquiry.
The responses were most informative.
They indicate that the engine in question was likely used to power "The
Tennesseean", a train out of Washington, D.C. to Memphis, and/or trains
running southward from D.C. to Atlanta. As the N&W participated with SRR, the
streamlining may have been an attempt to balance esthetics of the passenger
service with N&W corporate policy which at that time barred diesels on its
lines.
It's possible that only one engine was streamlined, although the photos
chosen for the MM article would suggest more.
Happy New Year!
Paul
