NS 12Z passes the CPLs at Stuarts Draft on a hot and muggy summer morning. Unfortunately, progress has been made in the slow signal replacement program along the Shenandoah Line, and replacements are standing here now a year later.
Train: NS 12Z with NS 8096 (ES44AC).
Stuarts Draft, VA
NS Roanoke District
HOME OF THE THIRD
The Draft House is a small group of #PublicHouses which aims to do for #beer what our culture has done for #food and #wine over the past twenty years. Namely, we take its provenance, cellaring and serving seriously. We celebrate choice and quality with an extra-ordinary range of strange and wonderful brews.
"Britain is full of public houses of all shapes, sizes and varieties, but I felt we'd lost something special in recent years from British life and I wanted to provide a place that recaptured my idea of the perfect public house."
#TheDraftHouse is a charming place where you can - alone or with others - experience great beer, good food, interesting people and great conversation. It's a refuge for the soul for everyone who values civility in today's world. It's always genuine, staffed by people who love their job, packed with interesting stuff, plays good music and is frequented by people just like you.

This horse has all the markings of a draft horse, a farm work animal usually used to pull carriages or equipment. It has large hooves and is built strong. The coloring looks like The American Cream, the only draft breed indiginous to the United States. It is considered rare because of a genetic condition that has reduced its numbers. Minimal texture added to reduce sunlight glare. If any flickr members recognize the horse breed, let me know because I'm not sure. Chosen as cover photo on front page of Horses, Ponies, and Foals, Sept. 2019.

Just a few minutes after dawn, NS 202 slices through the still-darkened landscape past the CPL bracket mast at Stuarts Draft. A matched set of SD70ACes leads this lengthy train north toward Shenandoah, and eventually Harrisburg. 202 and counterpart 201 are the only intermodal trains to use the lower part of the H-Line, which otherwise is limited to manifests and the occasional unit train. They're hot on the heels of northbound manifest 12Z, and are passing a 15T that's waiting in the siding right behind me.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated. 😊
Gorgeous new Belleza applier has me out of hiding. Plus - I needed a distraction.
You can find the applier at the main store & this fucking fantastic liner is over at Summerfest.
...But all's been said and done
Will we ever really close this case?
Yeah, I will always be here for you, but I could no longer stay
Still my body goes in shock every time I hear your name
I struggle
I juggle
I could just throw a line to you
But I should let sleeping dogs lie 'cause I know better, baby
I write it
Erase it
Repeat it
But what good will it do
To reopen the wound
So I take a deep breath
And I save as draft
I've heard you've done some changing
I've been rearranging
Wish that I could know, but I just don't know
Never get that time back
Fear we'd fall in old traps
Why can't we just let go
Staring at a fork in the fucking road...

Part of my lengthy chase of an early morning 16T between Buena Vista and Compton, Va brought me to the small borough of Stuarts Draft. Here, the train hustles north at track speed, passing one of the many ex-N&W signals that still guard the sidings on the Shenandoah Line.
A freshly repainted NS 1067, the Reading Heritage Unit, leads southbound manifest NS 11Z past the N&W CPLs at control point Stuart’s Draft.
The sun rises in the Shenandoah Valley over Stuarts Draft as the now fallen N&W protect the control point.
A trifecta of white pelicans glide gracefully across the sky. I woke up this morning with urge to fly. What I wouldn't give to be able to soar like a bird amongst the clouds.
