Formed in 1838, it was the product of several hundred railroad mergers, to include such lines as the Nickel Plate, Virginian and Wabash railroads. The N&W served the area from Norfolk, Virginia westward to Kansas City and Omaha, including the major cities of Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. The N&W merged with the Southern Railway System in 1982 to form a mega-railroad, the Norfolk Southern, which stretched this territory south through Atlanta to Jacksonville and New Orleans. In 1999, Norfolk Southern acquired a large portion of the former Conrail system and became one of the two large east-coast railroads. For auction is an "Empty Car Way-Bill" from the N&W dated September 1971; it is unused. This waybill was used to route unloaded freight cars to specific destinations for reloading, repair or storage. The waybill measures appx 11 x 4 1/4 inches and is printed on light-weight cardstock. It is in very good condition, with no rips, tears, writing or markings. Images sell!
