<DIV class=plainMail>Hope all of you enjoyed Roanoke as much as I did. Thanks to all of those who continue staging our 'annual' at such a high level. I skipped the tours; have done them on previous visits. Instead focused on my own interests; track arrangements, bridges, some structures. Went to Wabun/Singer for another close look at the ex-VGN skewed truss bridge. Didn't get close; much more overgrowth now than 5 years ago made it risky..<BR><BR>Enjoyed meeting Tom Dixon; liked his comment that modelers are by nature the core of historic preservation. Brings a couple of NWHS members to mind.<BR><BR>Struggled with northbound I-81 traffic on the way home. Must have been liberals on their way to D.C.: limping along in the left lane; holding everything else up; ignoring the majority.<BR><BR>Jerome Crosson<BR><BR>________________________________________<BR><A href="http://us.mc844.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=NW-Mailing-List@nwhs.org"
