More memories from Blue Ridge Chapter Member, Lee Hawkins, as relayed by 
Norris Deyerle:

=================

Boy this thing is going on and on…I love it.

More memories I think:

I have some thoughts about how they coaled the J’s after 1953 (when the 
coal chute came down at Monroe).

I have seen some reports, in a magazine ??? (memory loss here), that traced 
the route, times, train numbers, etc. of each J between servicing.

Not real sure about this, I think I saw that they would put a fresh J on at 
Roanoke for the trip to Monroe and back (which eliminated coaling and such 
at Monroe).
