N&W Surviving Stations Part 2

[NW Mailing List]

Roxboro, NC update: Recently found a structure that looks like a station about at 200 Depot Street. This is something that needs more investigation. Now I am unsure what is the Roxboro station. However, I do know that the station had been moved from the original location. Pilings remain among the Depot Street crossing, though I do not yet know what they are from.

Chillicothe OH was indeed demolished.  After it burned it was little more than  a pile of rubble, and that was later cleared away.  I have one of the bricks my daughter rescued for me.

Chillicothe was a B&O division HQ that served N&W as well.

I was not aware of the Bluefield freight station. There is a Amtrak station at Bluefield (now used by NS) which I did not include because it was not of N&W origin. Also, I found the stations at both Emory and Meadowview. Thanks to Google Maps, the location given was not trustworthy. Also, it gave these locations for those stations in the N&WHS list:

Lennig, VA: Lennig Rd., Nathalie,VA.

Winfall, VA: Brookneal Hwy., Gladys, VA.

Elkland,NC: Todd, NC.

These are not the fault of Google Maps, it may be going by post office location.

Also these updates:

Dunlow, WV: Appears to be in poor shape in the "Street View" on Google Maps. Needs personal investigation to confirm this.

Rougemont, NC: Appears to be mostly demolished. NS has abandoned the line at this point, and a view along Red Mountain Rd. may confirm what remains.

Pine Hall, NC: Can't really judge, but from the satellite it appears to have been flattened. It's on Pine Hall Rd. if anyone wants to take a look.

Ashville, OH: Appears to be in good shape.

Lavalette, WV: I'll leave this for you to judge. I feel it may be on the way out.

Chillicothe,OH: I know it burned in 2012. It is marked off the N&WHS list, so I suspect it has been demolished.

Lennig, VA: Appears to be in good shape, though sitting by itself in a field.

Roxboro, NC: Appears to have been moved and turned into a house. Pilings remain along the railroad, though what they came from I don't know.

Tuckerdale,NC: Appears to be in good shape though it looks like it has been many years since it's seen a coat of paint.

Hopefully more updates to come.

Lois:



Isn't the Bluefield, WV freight station still there?  I think I saw it the last time the NWHS Convention was in Bluefield.  Passenger station is long gone, of course.
