Sometime  in the 1930s, the Station Numbers were revised.  Originally the 
Station  Numbers had been in some form tied to the Mile Posts, but in the  1930s 
they were revised to reflect actual mileage from  Norfolk. 


Spike,
    I as far as I know on the Shen. Div. the station  numbers were the next 
mile post north of the station and stayed  that way until the advent of CYO. 
Reporting them in paperwork the Valley used a  "13" prefix (Winston Line used a 
"14"). Example - Glasgow 13195, Buena Vista  13184, Midvale 13174, Waynesboro 
13142, Shenandoah 13106.
    I would like to ask if you still have your photos  of Buddy Ralston's 
wreck near Gooseneck Dam?
