Draft:Norfolk and Western Class Y7
Comment: See WP:ANI#Australian railroad IP, The proposal to block the person editing from IP's with this behaviour and delete their future drafts/articles is supported and carried. Practically speaking, this amounts to a site ban; any IP address that geolocates appropriately and engages in "dubious notability, ref-bombing, fixation on American locomotives of a certain era" can be blocked for a period of time on sight, and their edits reverted and/or deleted. Their edits to AfD discussions can also be reverted on the same basis. Note that articles/drafts created prior to this closure cannot be deleted per this clause, for the same reason that G5 deletions only apply from the point where an editor is banned. I will block the most recently-used IP for 3 months. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 00:21, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

The Norfolk and Western Class Y7 was a proposed compound 2-8-8-2 Mallet articulated steam locomotive.
Ideas for the design[edit]
The end result was that the Class Y7 wasn't supposed to look like the rest of the N&W Y-Class 2-8-8-2s, it was instead meant to resemble the Denver and Rio Grande Western Class L-131 2-8-8-2s but it would have a delta trailing truck has a relatively long side frame it was also meant to have a higher boiler pressure at up to 300 psi (2.1 MPa), it would also have air-compressors mounted on the front, as well as having the same cow-catcher design from their Class A 2-6-6-4s.
