	**Bluestone - N&W Branch Line* 
<http://www.nwhs.org/commissary/product697.html>*
Bluestone - Norfolk & Western Branch Line is the first in a series of 
NWHS publications about major branch lines of the N&W. This 128-page, 
soft cover book has over 130 black and white pictures plus an additional 
70 maps, charts and time tables to take the reader from the first 
crossing of the Bluestone in 1884 to the last major coal operation on 
the branch line shutting down in 1984. The book uses the 1927 track 
chart as a basis for describing the curves, bridges and grades as tracks 
were laid to serve the 21 major coal operations on the branch. The book 
also uses the N&W Railroad records to explain how the Flat-Top Extension 
and its proposed pathway to the Ohio River became the Bluestone Branch.

N&W Pocahontas Division <http://www.nwhs.org/commissary/new.html> 	
*N&W Pocahontas Division* 
<http://www.nwhs.org/commissary/PocahontasDivision.html>

Mason Cooper's new 334-page hardback book uses 260 B/W photos and 45 
maps/drawings to take the reader through the building and operation of 
the N&W's Pocahontas Division from the first shipment of coal in 1883 to 
the N&W-Southern merger in 1982. Mason's research extends through N&W 
documents, historical data, magazine articles and personal stories to 
present both facts and recollections on how the division was constructed 
and operated. Mason's in-depth research shows how the railroad was 
built, why the railroad was built, and the personal side of operating on 
the Pocahontas Division over the years.
