Cheseapeke and western

[Anonymous]

There are two Cheseapeke and Western Baldwin Diesels at a scrap yard in Roanoke VA. They are with the three unpreserved N&W steam engines. Apparently the owner of the scrap yard they are in has died and they have been donated them the the Virginia Transportation Muesum. Here are some links.

There is a great HB book on the C&W. It's called "The Crooked & Weedy" by Charles Grattan Price, Jr. Published in 1991 by the Shenandoah Valley Chapter of the NRHS and reprinted in 1993.
