Virginian in 1909--Ready

[NW Mailing List]

In later years, VGN would receive a decent
volume of coal that had originated on CC&O.
It was routed CC&O-Spartanburg-ACL-Jarratt-
VGN.? Remember that CC&O was?owned
50-50 by L&N and ACL.? This route gave
ACL a larger?division of the revenue than
a route via N&W from St. Paul (Boody).

Coal was very lucrative traffic for N&W
(as if you didn't know that).? Dr. Paul Zeiss
headed the Management Information Dept.
in Roanoke.? Once asked what complex
formula he used to project N&W revenues,
his answer was - "Project the cars?to be
dumped at Lamberts?Point and multiply by
$1,000."
