Remarks & Notes

I can't help but be impressed by the skill required to safely move a train down Saluda Grade.

Saluda, Memories Album created by member Wayne Wanzor	Album Views: 9,815
When you say the word Saluda to some of the most senior members of Norfolk Southern crews and even those who have retired from the railroad, it still brings up images of the steepest grade on a standard gauge line in the United States at 4.24%.
