Norfolk and Western Railway Toddler Tee / T-Shirt
Introduce little railfans to the story of Norfolk and Western, the Virginia railroad shaped by generations of rail history. Its roots reach back to 1838, and its 1881 name marked a new chapter centered in Roanoke. The railway became known for coal hauled from the Pocahontas region and locomotives built at its Roanoke Shops. This toddler tee connects a young railroad enthusiast with the N&W name, its steam-era story, and a regional heritage that still draws collectors.
The Norfolk and Western Railway, commonly known as the N&W, grew from railroads dating to 1838 and was formed through more than 200 mergers between 1838 and 1982. 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 was headquartered in Roanoke, Virginia, for most of its existence. Its expansion opened the Pocahontas coalfields and made coal its primary commodity. The railway built steam locomotives and hopper cars at its Roanoke Shops; in 1960 it became the last major U.S. railroad to end regular steam locomotive use. It merged with longtime rival the Virginian Railway in 1959. Later acquisitions, including the Nickel Plate Road and Wabash, extended its reach across the Midwest. In 1980, N&W and Southern Railway joined under the Norfolk Southern Corporation holding company. Southern Railway was renamed Norfolk Southern Railway in 1982, and N&W came under its control. In 1986, N&W merged with Southern Railway to form today’s Norfolk Southern Railway.
