My records indicate that the last steam loco in regular freight service in the U.S. was a 2-8-0 on the Crab Orchard and Egyptian RR out in Illinois.  As noted, the locos at the steel mill outlasted that, but were in-plant service only.

Sorry, too quick on the trigger.  The CO&E loco was retired from service in 1986.
