N&W in 1903 -- New Rail

[NW Mailing List]

Thanks for all the history, for a newcomer to East Tennessee it is helpful
to learn the history.

A note for some folk these 85-pound rails weigh 85 pounds per yard not per
foot.

I have found lots of folks do not know this and it should not be taken as an
insult to those who do.
