Abram Burnett's list of 111 Railroad Men

Thu Jul 30 18:26:44 EDT 2020

Many moons ago Abram Burnett graciously shared his blood, sweat and tears in gathering a list of 111 men who worked on the Shenandoah Valley, N&W and/or the Virginian. At the time he omitted one name with a nod to me since R.P.C. Sanderson was my great grandfather. Well, here is a rough timeline of his railroad work plus a couple of items fleshed out. I am close to finishing his full biography, just trying to nail-down and verify dates.

Hey all,If I recall correctly, Trains long ago did a photo feature using steam-era?photos from the collection of Ken Marsh. At least some shots?seem to have been taken onboard; can?t recall whether from an engine cab or passenger car.
My memory of course is increasingly faulty, FWIW.And my cab rides on 611 came in 1983 and ?85, for what it?s worth. Have never written about them, though.

There is a software update on the web software that was run over the weekend, and it broke a lot of little things regarding the databases, i.e. the Arrow database.

The webteam is working hard to get them corrected, but focused on the most important ones first, mainly functionality ordering and such.

Hopefully, they can get it solved this week sometime. Please be patient.

Thanks

Ken Miller
