Formed in 1838, it was the product of several hundred railroad mergers, to include such lines as the Nickel Plate, Virginian and Wabash railroads. The N&W served the area from Norfolk, Virginia westward to Kansas City and Omaha, including the major cities of Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. The N&W merged with the Southern Railway System in 1982 to form a mega-railroad, the Norfolk Southern, which stretched this territory south through Atlanta to Jacksonville and New Orleans. In 1999, Norfolk Southern acquired a large portion of the former Conrail system and became one of the two large east-coast railroads. For auction is a rule book, issued by the N&W to cover its Signals and Communications Department in the Lake Division; this is former Nickel Plate trackage. It is dated November 1, 1976. Measuring appx 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches and containing 152 pages, this publication covers all work rules for these workers. Included are such topics as rates of pay, seniority, promotions, road work, grievances, discipline, and calls. The book, which was issued unbound with metal clips, was meant to be placed into the workers' binders. The cover is a medium-weight cardstock, and the content pages are quality middle-grade paper. It is unused and in excellent condition - no rips or tears, writing, or markings, spills or smears. A nice collectible for any N&W or Nickel Plate railfan. Images sell!
