Chesapeake & Ohio 2781 was a class K-4 "Kanawha" type 2-8-4 built by Lima Locomotive Works in 1947. It pulled trains across the C&O system until being retired in late 1956.

After retirement, No. 2781 was stored along with a few other C&O steam locomotives in Russell, KY. However unlike most of the engines that has found new homes, No. 2781 was scrapped in the early 1970s.
