The N&WHS has the large blueprint of the layout of Bluefield
Yard (about 36" x 8 feet or so) that we have offered for a sale a number
of times some years ago. You can re-order it by sending a request to
Archives at nwhs.org and asking for it specifically. We'll print up a
special order for you.



As to the other drawings necessary to illustrate the Right of
Way from Bluefield to Pounding Mill, the N&W created valuation drawings
on D size paper that encompassed about a mile and a half of track from a
yard limit to the next yard limit at the mile plus increments. These
drawings show the mile plus section as a plot.



Unfortunately, the N&WHS does not have all of these drawings
available for the Clinch Valley right now. (Although the archives are
constantly uncovering new materials!)



However, you should consider that some forty miles of track
makes for a long layout even in N scale.

Secretary N&WHS

I am new to this list, and to the hobby of Model Railroading.

I have a space for an N - Scale Layout 6 feet wide and 60 feet long. I
want to model from Bluefield,West Virginia to Pounding Mill,Virginia...
from the years 1945 through 1965.

| need correct diagrams showing track layout and structure locations of

the Bluefield and Pounding Mill yards of the Norfolk & Western Railway
for the years indicated above.



Would some knowledgeable Modler please reply with directions to a
resource where I can obtain this material?



If one of the List - Subscribers currently has this material, I will pay
for reproduction and mailing costs if they wre willing to share their
information and materials with me.



Thank you for the anticipated courtesy of a reply.
