N&W heavyweight sleeping cars

[NW Mailing List]

Oh, we have seen several pictures of the heavyweights in N&W livery. Check 
the article Jim Brewer and I did in the Arrow a few years ago. In fact, we 
have definitive evidence that Chilhowie was never repainted in N&W livery, 
and that may make it the only one that wasn't. Also, I saw one of the 
repaints in N&W livery (don't remember which one) in service at Petersburg 
in 1955.   Jim Nichols
