help with names

[NW Mailing List]

Pete:
 
WAB = Wabash
Correct on Pittsburgh & West Virginia
ACY = Akron, Canton and Youngstown
W&LE = Wheeling and Lake Erie
 
Hmmmm.....your "now N&S" remark bears commenting....Norfolk and  Southern - 
"N&S" - was the original name of the OLD Norfolk Southern, the  Norfolk to 
Charlotte via Elizabeth City etc line that eventually got absorbed  into the 
Southern and whose whole name was "borrowed" for today's "big" Norfolk  
Southern.  To the best of my knowledge, today's Norfolk Southern is NEVER  
referred to as "N&S."
 
But you knew that, of course.....
 
Best,
 
Dave Phelps

I think I know who the NKP is-Nickel  Plate. 
But would some one fill in the full names of the WAB,  P&WV, ACY, W&LE 
I am now guessing so correct as  necessary. 
P & WV-Pittsburgh and West  Virginia. 
PRR and N&W and N&S are  known. 
Any help appreciated. 
Pete Heimbach – Jonesborough, TN on the  East Tennessee, Georgia and  
Virginia  (perhaps in the wrong order) – later Southern – now  N&S
