a 50th Anniversary tomorrow, December 24th

[NW Mailing List]

Is this particular recording available?  My grandfather worked at the Rural Retreat station in the 40s and early 50s.  I would like to obtain a copy.  Is this recording included in the Link collection available through The Commissary?
Thanks for the info.

  As any N&W and O. Winston Link fan knows, the 24th of
  December 2007 will be the 50th (has it really been
  THAT long) anniversary of Link's audio masterpiece at
  Rural Retreat, Va to the chimes of the Lutheran Church
  there.

  I often go to sleep rather smoothly, with a smile,
  listening to those gentle sounds of a time which we
  will not see again. Seldom do I hear the train come
  rattling into town, opening and closing its' doors,
  only to depart in less than 30 seconds to the same
  gentle sounds to which it arrived.

  Link really correographed that 12.5 minutes
  magnificently with Hark The Herald Angels Sing, Silent
  Night, It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, Silent Night
  again and others in between, filling the night to a
  departure of time we reminisce for and about.

  Some people count sheep to go to sleep, ole nostagic
  me ... I listen to the train.

  Good Night and May God Bless.
