Nice Virginian Images

[NW Mailing List]

Thanks to Abram's recent post regarding Virginia Iron Coal & Coke 
holdings in the Radford University Digital Collection, I did a little 
bit more poking around and found two very nice glass-plate images that 
the Virginian members might enjoy. There are others in the collection as 
well. None are labeled as 'Virginian' so don't bother to search that 
term. Try 'trains' & 'railroad'.

(so many nice details in this image if you zoom in)

(check out that MB's headlight!)

As a bonus: Is this the original trestle at Garwood?

Long live the Virginian Railway.
