Generally, midway of each operating district was a
coaling station. On the Blue Ridge District, it
was Phoebe. Other coaling stations were Vicker,
Farm, Prichard, and Dorney,


Dwight wasn't exactly the midpoint between Crewe
and Norfolk, but it was a coaling station at one time.
It was there in 1932 and gone by 1954 (there are gaps
in my timetables) and I suspect that loop track was
used for unloading hoppers of company coal.
