{"product_id":"norfolk-and-western-railway-mouse-pad","title":"Norfolk and Western Railway Mouse Pad","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBring Norfolk and Western Railway history to your desk with a mouse pad inspired by a railroad known for its Roanoke headquarters, coal traffic, and home-built steam locomotives. N\u0026amp;W grew from a long chain of predecessor lines and expanded through notable mergers, including its 1959 union with Virginian Railway. Whether you follow railway history, collect railroad memorabilia, or simply appreciate classic American rail identities, this design keeps the N\u0026amp;W story in view during everyday work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNorfolk and Western Railway, commonly called the N\u0026amp;W, grew from a network of more than 200 railroad mergers between 1838 and 1982. Its earliest predecessor was the City Point Railroad, formed in Virginia in 1838. In 1870, the Norfolk and Petersburg, South Side, and Virginia and Tennessee railroads combined as the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio Railroad. Reorganized and renamed Norfolk and Western in 1881, the company established its long-running headquarters in Roanoke, Virginia, and developed a major coal-hauling network. It built its own steam locomotives and hopper cars at the Roanoke Shops. In December 1959, it merged with longtime rival Virginian Railway. By 1970, mergers that included the Nickel Plate Road and Wabash had expanded its system across a broad area of the eastern and central United States. In 1980, N\u0026amp;W joined Southern Railway operations under the Norfolk Southern Corporation holding company. Southern Railway was renamed Norfolk Southern Railway in 1982, and N\u0026amp;W came under its control. In 1986, the two railroads merged to form today's Norfolk Southern Railway.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 500; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e9\" × 8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eWidth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e9.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e8.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDepth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e0.06\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Smooth, low-friction surface for effortless mouse movement\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Full-front color print with bright, accurate reproduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Ultra-thin 1\/16\" (1.58 mm) high-density foam core\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Non-slip rubber base that grips the desk\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Rectangular shape with one-sided print\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Use warm water and dish soap to clean spots off your pad.
