Not NW but,

[NW Mailing List]

CSX has locals that still run through Erwin. They have also indicated that the line will still be fully maintained, with the unstated thought that if traffic picks back up, they car open it pretty quickly. Also, if they decide to sell it to a regional, like the Buckingham RR between Clifton Forge and Richmond, everything will be in working order.

you never know if they have to reroute a train through there, I'm sure
it would be kept in a service state.
