45: A Southern road freight has just cleared the joint
trackage at the south end of Granfield and is winding
its way behind the industries in town. Meanwhile L&N
local 603 waits in the siding for more through trains.
44: Cumberland Collieries loadout which is serviced
by the L&N is adjacent to the Southern's Three Post
yard at Hawthorne. Compare this to figure 32 where
the track work was in progress.

Cumberland Collieries tipple located in Hawthorne
VA on the L&N. The N&W, using trackage rights, will
pick them up and deliver them to Lamberts Point, VA
