BH Tower, Walton: Thoughts on Mr. Gordon's Photo of thee CTC Machine

[NW Mailing List]

I've not specifically heard of the Huckleberry going to Elliston, but I think it is entirely possible. The Salem Shifter, on rare occasion, ran to Elliston, why I am not certain, but perhaps to drop a car for the Huckleberry, or pick up a car. I have two or three different photos  from different photographers that show a mixed train at Arthur and Elliston with a class M, and since that was the only mixed train, at least late in the steam era, I'd have to suspect it was the Huckleberry.

While few would have ridden from Radford to Christiansburg or Blacksburg, this was a daily part of the route yet never shown.
