The work of removing the railroad iron,
locomotives, &c., from Martinsburg to Winchester goes bravely on.
With 24 horses hitched to it, a locomotive
is hauled over the turnpike with considerable ease. The locomotives
appear out of Kelter and much injured by being burned, yet it is
understood that from $300 to $500 will put them in complete running
order. If so, Virginia will be no loser in the operation. |
