Jimmy-

You may want to  contact the President of the Clinchfield Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society, Ray Poteat. His e-mail address is: arpoteat at blueridge.net.   Ray is a former CRR employee, and he has a wealth of knowledge about the CRR.  Also there is a Clinchfield Railroad group on Yahoo Groups: clinchfieldrailroad at yahoogroups.com, and a Clinchfield Railroad group on Facebook.

Subject: Clinchfield RR wreck back in the teens

I am trying to help a neighbor find some information on a train wreck on the Clinchfield RR back somewhere around 1918 +/- and I have absolutely no information on the CRR. He says the wreck happened near "Long Branch" 
or Longbranch", just outside of a tunnel. This area is between Nora and Trammel. He has the bell off of the locomotive involved and I would to help him find out which loco it came from and maybe a picture of the type, along with other information about the wreck. Is there anyone here that may have access to this information?
