Out of print since 1987, William E. Griffin, Jr. has updated and expanded his popular history of this colorful Virginia shortline railroad with a new layout and extensive new photographic coverage. Here is the complete history of the railroad that was originally built with a large investment of British capital to transport cotton from the farms of Southside Virginia to the port of Norfolk. It operated a steam powered narrow gauge branch line and Southern Railway steam locomotives during its 50-year lease to that road, then favored Alco diesels during its period of independent operation and subsequent operation by the Norfolk and Western Railway as the Norfolk, Franklin and Danville Railroad. The book has also been updated to cover the history of the railroad since the creation of the Norfolk Southern Corporation and provides a new color section that will be of interest to modelers and historians. Extended photo captions also provide details on the railroad's locomotives, Norfolk naval operations, stations and rolling stock. In addition to fans of the AandD, the book will be of interest to fans of the Southern Railway, Norfolk and Western Railroad, Norfolk Southern Corporation, shortlines and narrow gauge railroads.
