Visit to the O. Winston Link Museum

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Saturday, Sept. 4th, John Zuro and I drove down to Roanoke and visited 
the museum.  It's in the beautifully restored Norfolk & Western 
passenger station in Roanoke, just a few blocks from the Virginia 
Transportation Museum.

The Link museum is great!  It not only includes many, many of Mr. Link's 
excellent images of N&W steam, but also explains a bit of the how and 
why of the project.

One of Mr. Link's conditions for participating in the project was 
preservation of the only surviving N&W "A" locomotive, and it's in the 
VMT, cosmetically restored but missing pieces, under a newly constructed 
roof, next to the "J".

I encourage you to consider a visit.
