N&W in 1909--Painting

[NW Mailing List]

I don't know about the brick passenger station, but among larger buildings there would have been the freight station and the tower, both probably wooden, plus various wooden utility buildings that were a lot more prevalent in 1909 than they are today.

    Well, we always wondered what the early N&W station and depot colors were.  Seems they weren't the yellowish cream and rusty-red trim in the early days.

    Painting Railroad Property

     

        In order to keep up the procession in Graham, the Norfolk and Western are having their property here newly painted and a big force is engaged in the work.  The depot and other property in Graham owned by the company is being touched off with a nice coat of the standard gray used by the railroad.
