NIGHT SIGNALS » A northbound is lit to proceed at Summit on the former Norfolk and Western H Line in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.

CLEAR

The stillness in the middle of the night is deafening along the floor of the famous Shenandoah Valley. The roar of bugs chirping or local wildlife calling out can be heard. Finally off in the distance a rumble and then a horn, The rumble begins to overtake the white noise surrounding me and again another horn. Finally a northbound approaches. These rails have been laid for over 125 years and is now a vital artery for the railroad that owns them. Bentonville is located about 10 miles south of Front Royal in Warren County, VA.
Triple Seven approaches the PRR style position light signals at Lilly on the mainlines West Slope.
