You’re absolutely right, Mr. Edwards.

When future generations ask themselves, “So what made that Norfolk & Western such a great railroad?” we need to have stories like this in order to be able to explain it to those who didn’t live it.   These stories need to be documented fully while the actual storytellers are around to do the job.

Locomotives, cars, bridges and buildings are all great, but it’s always been the people that really made the wheels turn.

I am sure there are many members who have stories to share, both personal experiences & “hand down” stories from family members.
