Icing Stations on the N&W

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Gary,
 
Thanks for the information from the 1924 Officers, Agents and  Stations 
listing.  I suspect you are correct in that very little came to  Durham needing 
refrigeration.  A look at an Sanborn Insurance Map of that  period show the N&W 
freight yard and freight house.  Most all of the  other tracks in the 
neighborhood are to tobacco facilities.  There is J. A.  Murdock Co. Inc, an ice plant 
and coal yard not too far away from the  freight yard but with no loading dock 
showing.  There is  an ammonia tank showing on the map   I didn't have this 
map  access when I first posted my question.
 
Thanks to all who responded. 
 
Chuck Stewart
