I believe they were last used on the Peach Creek Sub in WV and were mostly used in coal mine, and coal drag service. Being 2-6-6-2 instead of 2-8-8-2, meant they could get into tighter places which is usually around mines and branches.
There are a couple photos of it in regular service on the website...Here is the link.
