The Roanoke Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society will offer two round trip excursions by train between Roanoke and Danville (Nov. 6) and Roanoke and Bluefield (Nov. 7). These trips, using modern Amtrak locomotives and coaches plus vintage railroad cars, depart from the former N&W passenger station in downtown Roanoke and will have a layover of 3 hours in Danville and 2 ½ hours in Bluefield to participate in local activities. Coach seats are available for either trip and can be purchased at the O. Winston Link Museum (540-982-5465) or Virginia Museum of Transportation (540-342-5670) during business hours. Both Coach and First Class seats may be ordered from the Roanoke Chapter NRHS (540-774-0611) evenings, or online at www.RoanokeNRHS.org.
