Eastern Railroad Discussion > Quick chase of the NCVA on 12/23Date: 01/15/22 05:08 Quick chase of the NCVA on 12/23 Author: Asheville_G Two days before Christmas I found myself in very familiar territory, close to where I grew up on the way back to Asheville, NC. Knowing the usual schedule for NCVA, I took a quick detour in hopes of finding the Nucor train heading back towards Ahoskie. While talking to fellow TO member "ShortlinesUSA" I ran across the train near Milwaukee, NC and gave a quick chase back to Rich Square, managing a few solid photos.
