Wasn't Flickwir also involved as a treasurer or something like that while
the SVRR was under receivership in the 1880's right before it was taken
over by the N&W?

> From the Steamtown releases, some photos of David Flickwir's equipment in
1910, working on construction of the New Jersey Cut Off.

The first photo shows a cute little 0-4-0T stencilled "David W Flickwir -
Roanoke, Va." Since this engine is marked with Flickwir's company name, it
was likely owned equipment, rather than leased for the particular job. It
would be very interesting to know how the Flickwir engines, shovels,
four-wheel dump cars, etc, were purchased, maintained, transported from job
to job, and disposed of.
