A Great Locomotive Chase question

[NW Mailing List]

I have a question concerning Dave Vos' "*A Great Locomotive Chase*" article
in the April-May-June 2014 issue of the *Arrow* (which I enjoyed very
much). The caption on page 11 concerning engine 477 references delivering
cars to VMI in Lexington.  Since this is about the "Huckleberry" on the
Blacksburg branch of the N&W and switching cars in Christiansburg, how are
the cars going to get to Lexington which is about 80 miles northeast of
Christiansburg?  Last time I checked, Blacksburg is and always has been
home to VPI, the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, not VMI.  :)
