Y'all,

         I know many of you will be attending the Train Lovers Day at 
the Virginia Museum of Transportation in Roanoke on 11-February from 
10:00am until 5:00pm. I released my book, Chasing the Powhatan Arrow 
at the Museum on a mild late-fall evening in November with the 611 
locomotive as a massive backdrop. Since then, I've been told that my 
book is the best seller they carry in their gift shop.
         Chasing the Powhatan Arrow is a travelogue in economic 
geography from Norfolk to Cincinnati, following the route of that 
iconic N&W passenger train. Unlike the hundreds of other books about 
trains, it is instead about the people, places, history, geography, 
culture, and especially the economy of the towns and cities through 
which it passed.
         I've been invited by the VMT to attend and have a book 
signing table at the Train Lovers Day and I'd enjoy meeting you there.
