In November of 2008 I came into possession of a small collection of old Norfolk and Western photographs. Some of the photos had descriptions written/typed on the back, so I estimate that all of the photos are from the 1940's and 1950's
Several of the photos are damaged. This is due to where they were stored, having been exposed to moisture and animals. They are now properly stored and should be safe.
I did not alter the photos in any way. I cropped a couple to give a better view, but otherwise they are untouched. I hope they give you a feel for what the photos actually look like.
Edited to correct grammer and add 4 pics (Photobucket was having trouble).

WOW!! Amazing collection!!
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too! | |
My favs:

Going where others can't... | |
Dude, thanks for posting these.........
*****in the spirit of Norfolk and Western here are pics of some postcards that my great grandfather had and made frames for. Sorry for the pics, I shot them in a hurry. I might scan them later if I can get them out of the frames safely******

Is 25 the Roanoke Locomotive works?
I spent six hours on the bridge there once just watching all kinds of trains go through and units get moved around. It was a good day.
