Electrics in Bluefield

[NW Mailing List]

Gordon,

                I used this photo in the Pocahontas Division book. Before that it was in the N&W Magazine and was taken in December 1940.

Best,

Mason

This image that was posted on the Facebook site, "You Know You're From Princeton, WV, if...." shows the prevalence of electric locomotives on the N&W of bygone days.  One locomotive on the shop track appears to be a Class LC-2 electric, dating this scene as being sometime after the first two were delivered in 1924.
