Is your favorite main line now full of weeds and wild flowers?

Atlantic Coast Line had a branch from Rocky Mount, N.C. to Portsmouth, Va. which I grew up near and rode passenger trains on many times in the 40's and 50's. A friend of mine and myself used to hang out at an interlocking tower on weekends where the old Atlantic and Danville Ry crossed the Coast Line. Now it is all gone at least between Portsmouth and Suffolk, Va. Don't know about the rest of the line as I have lived in California since 1958. I did manage to save a spike from the tracks at the Portsmouth Depot before it was torn down. That's all I have left of it except wonderful memories. Ray
