N&W GP9 903 leads another Geep and an Alco on a westbound hopper train past the Waverly station as some local kids watch. I was there to see the last eastbound N&W POCAHONTAS behind Nickel Plate 2-8-4 759 and the others probably were too. The passenger train was behind schedule and I couldn't wait but I hope that they got to see the big Berkshire.
Oh the stories these special buildings could tell. Originally the brains of the rails they monitored, working to insure effecient rail service for our nation! A tribute!
i was born in virginia in 1972. when i think of railroads that shaped the commonwealth. i think of railroads like, SCL, N&W and southern. this is a tribute to those wonderful days gone by and for those who remember it well.
