Domed Passenger Cars

[NW Mailing List]

That is correct. The N&W ran ex-Wabash domes from Norfolk to Cincinnati, 
from 1966, first on the Arrow, and then on the Pocahontas, after the demise 
of the Arrow, in 1969. I know, because I rode them as a kid from Norfolk to 
Bluefield. I  filmed super 8 color movies from the dome cars. I also filmed 
the last run of the Pocahontas behind NKP steam in 1971. Thank's,   Jim 
Flummer
