Vacatikon questions

[NW Mailing List]

The Bristol Roundhouse is still there, but it is, I believe, a sand and gravel outfit.  The turntable and pit are gone, but the old roundhouse office is still there and in use.

    Hi folks:

    This is my first post to this group, so if my questions have been answered 
    previously, bear with me.

    I am planning a couple of trips this summer to look at sites photographed by 
    O. Winston Link. I have a couple of questions I need answered before my 
    plans gel.

    1. Is there a relationship between mile post numbers and bridge numbers? 
    (i.e. is bridge 22 at milepost 22?) if not, is there a list of bridges 
    somewhere?

    2. Where was the Bristol, Va. roundhouse, and does it still exist?

    3. Where is the Bluefield, WV lubritorium, and does it still exist?

    Any help or guidance would be appreciated

    Thanks.

  Welcome John, I believe the Bristol roundhouse is gone (sadly), but the Bluefield lubritorium is now a diesel facility near the very visible coaling tower. Probably need permission to get in to it. Ron Hash
