No idea of what was located but both Mullins and Itally were official stations in the 1929 Open & Prepay Station list.
The one that I have wondered about is West End Tower at Bluefield, WV.   Was there some type of office at the end of the yard controlling trains entering or leaving the yard on the Flat top Div?  Some of the valuations indicate a small single story building but nothing to indicate any control of traffic.

 From a 1917 copy of N&W Officers, Agents and Stations, heading West out of Bluefield there is shown a couple of listing with which I am not familiar.  Namely at MP 368 "Mullins" and at MP 369 Italy.  Does anyone have any information on these places?
Also, did the N&W maintain an agent at mines and other large shippers?
