Train at Towers shopping center

[NW Mailing List]

Hi Skip,
 
Thanks for the tip about "old Roanoke". I was not aware of the site and am  
enjoying it on this rainy Saturday morning here in Raleigh. I grew up in  
Raleigh, but often traveled to Blacksburg to visit my grandmother. Roanoke 
was a  way-stop to Blacksburg and shopping experience in the 1950's and '60's 
Both of  my parents attended VPI and I developed a love for Roanoke and the 
N&W.  I just re-joined the Society after a few year absence last month and 
will be  interested in keeping up with Society news.
 
All the best,
Edward Breeden

Gentlemen,

If you go to a web site "Old  Roanoke" and click on page 111, you can see 
Cactus Joe"  Joe's Choo Choo  pulling into the "station" at Towers Shopping 
Center.  Also he is on  pages 13,63,85,98,100,and 103.  You will probably do 
what i did the first  time I saw this sight...look at all of it......many 
Roanoke Rail  photos.
