Restorations near completion
Title:  Restorations near completion
Description:  After many years of abandonment, neglect and two devastating fires the old Chesapeake Western office & Depot was sold to a local business whom then invested in the buildings future. Local firms were hired and extensive restorations and work has been ongoing for several months. The renovations are nearly complete with a highly anticipated move in date sometime this month. Most of the original interior design on the main floor, I am told, has been kept intact and preserved and will be used as a showroom for the local business whom purchased the property from Norfolk Southern after many years of relentlessly asking for them to sell to the building. The 2nd floor will house a local architectural and several other companies involved in this project. The freight depot has been planned to be turned into a museum dedicated to all things related the Chesapeake Western Railway. I have watched from a distance as this once rundown dilapidated eyesore of a building has been transformed once again into the architectural splendor it once was the day it first opened in 1913. And yes I be will one of the first to buy a ticket to the museum and then reminisce of the days gone by when I walked its floors as young boy while waiting on my pops to finish his paper work after a long days work on the "Crooked & Weedy".

Running Lite
Title:  Running Lite
Description:  V94 is running lite back to the yard after switching local grain elevators North of town. This line was originally a B&O passenger line and the wall to the right marks the original property line where the B&O "Union Station" passenger station once stood. The building was used by the B&O RR as a passenger station until 1941. It then stood vacant for several years and was purchased by the Wetsel Seed Company (pictured in the background) whom then in 1944 torn the station down and turned the land into a parking lot. The area now is walled and topped with razor barbed wire to deter anyone wishing to escape the "Downtown Hilton"

Candy Cane Express
Title:  Candy Cane Express
Description:  N&W #41 (Formerly Chesapeake Western #11) is pulling the Candy Cane Express out of the yard, carrying parents and their little ones on a short ride up to Shaffers Crossing and back. Thanks to the many efforts of Roanoke Chapter NRHS for restoring her back to working order. After a long life on the Chesapeake Western pulling freight, this short little passenger train was a treat to see and ride again for this CW fan.
