Virginian Railway electric EL-2B class locomotive
They were the largest two-unit electric locomotives used in North America and were powered by 11 kV, 25 Hz AC from overhead. They were retired and sold for scrap shortly after the 1959 merger of the Virginian with the Norfolk and Western Railway. None of the 4 examples were preserved.

A 4-unit lash-up, the lead is an SD40T-2 in the short-lived Kodachrome livery. From the look of it, a fair bit of time had been spent inside tunnels.
