Is there any way to access the "Dope Sheet" on line?


   Ray Smoot

No Ray.  The "Dope Sheets" were typed,  then the clerk printed them up on
a duplicating machine (long before Xerox).  After N&W closed Tidewater, I
was back bucking the extra board, but I could always find work in December
by hiring on as time keeper for the JT.  Still have some "Dope Sheets" I
saved, but the blue ink has begun to fade.

Incidentally, P.R. photos of The Tennessean seem to show trains with a 
solid stainless steel consist.  Check out #46 called at Chattanooga on
December 9, 1947-
