Two very nice photos, Paul. Thanks for sharing them, along with your personal memory of the event.

Just received the latest issue of the Arrow and their is an article in there that brought back memories.  Issue included lots of photos of the Pocahontas last run which I had the good fortune to ride from Roanoke to Lynchburg.  My in-laws were N&W employees and had gotten my wife and I tickets for the ride.  It was crowded at the station in Roanoke and difficult to get good pictures (plus I was a novice at train photograph).   When I saw the article I went back to slides I had scanned and was able to find the few photos I took that day.  Attached are two of those photos I took that day.  These are not the best quality scans and someone with Photoshop skills could improve them but I thought I would share them with society members.

Love the hats the men had.
