consist (first class cars) to the south end at approx 9:30 AM. The full
consist is being pushed out the north end of the Spencer museum grounds right
now, 10:45 AM. I presume they will take it to the Salisbury wye to
turn it and then head north.</font></span></div>

when it comes through. My best guess right now is it will go through
Greensboro at between 12:00 and 12:30. The interchange at Hurt on this
time line would be around 2:00 - 2:30 PM unless it is held
up.</font></span></div>

<font face="Comic Sans MS">A friend riding the private cars in the Amtrak
excursion train consist told me that the 25 car train will leave Spencer at
9:00 am Thursday and come to Altavista on the old Southern. Then it will go
through the "Altavista Connection" and go west on the old Virginian to
Roanoke! A 25 car passenger car train on the
