Title:
23A westbound. Waiting for the 2156 ferry move to pass by. (I decided to do lunch after this train. MISSED four others!)
Description:
Just about every Tuesday I take my stepmom to visit my 89-yr-old dad living at the Virginia Veterans Care Center. This particular Tuesday I left the VVCC in hopes of catching the 2156.

MAN! Were the few of us there surprised when the gates on the Virginian side started to go down! The ex-VGN and ex- N&W are parallel to one another at this spot in Salem

The 2156 is almost back home in Roanoke... even if it arrived on ex-VGN rail.
