Ken 
I've asked before but, my old mind still didn't compute .On the Web Cam I
see the Amtrak BACK  in to the platform in Roanoke .Where is it backing in
from? Does it come by the old Virginian JK Tower? Or is JK to far back? I
know they keep some Amtrak equipment over in South Yard Where is it stored
over there? All of that is out of the Hotel Roanoke Camera range. Ken Tanner

Just found this while moving my timetable collection this afternoon.

N&W Norfolk Division Timetable No. 16, effective 12:01 am, Tuesday, December
1, 1959

Page N-26
Maximum Permissible Speed Table listed
Portlock to South Roanoke
Engines Class DE-S and DE-RS, Passenger Trains; 55 mph, Time and Local
Freight Trains, 45 mph; Other Trains, 35mph
Engines Class DE-38, Passenger Trains, 55 mph; Time and Local Freight Trains
45 mph;  Other Trains, 35mph
Engines Class PA and BA, Passenger Trains, 55 mph; Time and Local Freight
Trains, 45 mph; Other Trains, 35mph

I thought that was pretty interesting, I only listed the top three lines,
but that would have to be the only place that Virginian steam was listed in
an N&W employee timetable.

Hard to imagine that stuff that had been out of service for over three and a
half years would even have been listed.
