4) 24 x 17 inches titled "A Norfolk and Western Coal Train In West Virginia"
which shows the caboose and back end of a coal train going through a narrow
valley on a triple track section on the right side of a smaller river or
creek.  You can also see what look like the concrete supports for catenary
poles, but no poles or wire.  In the distance there is what looks like a
railroad bridge bringing a track across the stream to the main line and past
that what appears to be a coal tipple on the right side of the valley.  On
the right above the track is a cut that looks like a road or perhaps a mine
high wall.  Sometime in the past someone told me this picture was taken west
of Bluefield, perhaps near Yeager.
