Viewed from the newly opened King Coal Highway Bridge, eastbound NS 820 passes through the interlocking at RD, starting down the mountain, snaking out of Bluefield Yard on their trip towards Roanoke. Even though these bridges over the valley have been built for 15 plus years, the few mile connection from US 460 to the Airport Road was only opened a little over a year ago.
A rail tribute to the Canadian Pacific as it was before. The KCS as it was then and now, the combined CPKC system as it continues growing today. All credit goes to the original photographers and their talents. Many thanks for your efforts. Please enjoy
