N&W 475 (NW Mailing List)

Frank,

The 475 was back dated as you see for Roanoke's Diamond Jubilee, 75th 
Anniversary, celebration in June 1957.

It was briefly displayed in Bristol sometime after the 1957 NWHS 
Convention and remained in this configuration until sold to Virginia 
Scrap Iron & Metal.

Happy 4th, everyone!

I suppose there is a story about the gussied-up 475 with extra brass 
trim and a balloon stack in 1958?
