Nostalgia & History > Rick Rode The Pocahontas Into Roanoke, 1966Date: 02/28/15 16:35 Rick Rode The Pocahontas Into Roanoke, 1966 Author: MartyBernard In August my friend Rick Burn rode the N&W's Train 4, The Pocahontas, into Roanoke in August 1966. He also took several pictures around the yard which I will post soon.

I'm especially interested in those GP's still flying the Maroon scheme in 1966, I was always curious as to how extensive and when the somewhat short lived blue scheme penetrated the original N&W lines runs. Thanks for posting. Date: 03/01/15 09:51 Re: Rick Rode The Pocahontas Into Roanoke, 1966 Author: mp51w Mail, Express, small town depots, and the mountain scenery, Rick captured it all!
