Cavalier (passenger train)
- Cavalier (passenger train)
The "Cavalier" was one of the named passenger trains of the Norfolk and Western Railway. Despite the small contribution it made to the Norfolk & Western's operating revenue, the company offered a wide variety of passenger trains to serve the public. Although there were relatively few people in its service area from which to draw patrons, N&W put its best foot forward. Named trains such as the "Pocahontas", the "Cavalier", and the famed all-coach "Powhatan Arrow" were but a part of a fleet including joint operations with other companies as well as branch line accommodations.
