One recent weekend in Roanoke, we heard from friends that the folks at Norfolk Southern's Shaffer's Crossing were having an open house. An apparently unadvertised event for family and friends, we were lucky to know about it and be able to go. Attending reminded Kim of company picnics at Covington's old Hercules plant: The employees were taking a great deal of pride in showing off their workplace, and there were tons of little freebies. Elijah's favorite parts were climbing aboard a parked train and getting a new bandana sporting the NS logo. Someday, we know he'll be impressed with the photo of himself in front of a real turntable that we took, too!
