Frank, 



The Hagerstown District of the Shenandoah Division was selected by N&W to implement the ICC directive in Order No. 13413.  Installaton was begun December 1923, completed November 10, 1924.  See Mason Cooper's Shenandoah Valley Line book, pp. 108-111.

Was there ever Automatic Train Control on the Shenandoah Division?  My understanding is that the only place N&W locomotives operated under ATC was over the Atlantic Coast Line between Petersburg and Richmond. 

Thanks for the information,
