Bluefield Daily Telegraph
September 22, 1911

[The following advertisement by the Bluefield newspaper is unusual because it features a profile of the N&W mainline between Norfolk and Columbus.  It is best viewed full screen, and a transcription of the caption follows the image.]



    EXAMINE THE ABOVE PROFILE.  IT WILL SHOW YOU THAT BLUEFIELD IS THE HIGHEST
POINT ON THE LINE OF THE NORFOLK & WESTERN--A LOCATION ON THE MOUNTAIN TO
WHERE GOOD, PURE AIR BRINGS HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.  BLUEFIELD OFFERS MANY CHANCES
FOR THE ENTERPRISING AND ADVANTAGES TO THE HOME-SEEKERS--GOOD SCHOOLS, ALL MOD-
ERN CITY-LIFE FACILITIES--BUT STILL CLOSE TO THE MOUNTAINS AND NATURE.  MAKE INQUIR-
IES OF THE DAILY TELEGRAPH, BLUEFIELD, W. VA., AND ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE PROMPTLY
ANSWERED.
