Nos. 75 and 76 were NOT scheduled to operate on Sundays, contrary to
what N&W promised the North Carolina PUC.

Thank you, that is exactly correct. In the Courier=Times (the Roxboro
paper) article of 8-9-54 it was stated "The Norfolk and Western is also authorized
to provide passenger and express service on the local freight trains
operating over the lines every day. Sundays excepted. There will be two schedules
combinded with the freight trains....The train leaving Lynchburg, Va. at 8:25
am is slated to make the trip to Durham by 4:05 P.M. and the train leaving
Durham at 6:30 a.m. will arrive in Lynchburg at 2:45 pm."
