Virginia Irom Coal & Coke; Radford Pipe Works

[NW Mailing List]

Radford University Digital Collections hosts a nice (and downloadable) PDF dealing with the history of Virginia Iron Coal & Coke and Radford Pipe Works, and also mentioning other iron ore furnaces on the N&W between Bristol and Roanoke, and on the North Carolina Branch.

The document was compiled by Dr. Harold W. Mann, Professor of History at the University. The text runs a bit over five pages and the bibliography runs six pages. For some reason the document is undated, but the metadata stored in the PDF's file properties shows the PDF was created in Nov 2010, if that helps.
