elevation of tracks at Rural Retreat VA

[NW Mailing List]

My Grandfather ran the Rural Retreat Drug Store for many years so as child born in 1951 I was very fortunate to see N&W steam engines working for a living whenever we visited. I have fond memories of small town life in the 50's which I wish I appreciated more back then.
I am getting ready to order the 611 license plate for my new car and I'd like to honor my family in a small way by including the elevation of the tracks in the town of Rural Retreat as part of the number. I've looked in the archives for that information and would be happy to order a few of them if I can be certain they'd have that info on them but the writing is a little too hard for me to make out.
When I do a google search for that info I get 2513' but I have no way of knowing where that measurement is taken.
Any and all suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks, Jay Jessup
