'These snow covered coal cars from West Virginia look like they might be harbingers of weather headed for Roanoke. These Norfolk and Western coal cars are in holding yards in Roanoke waiting for delivery. Since they came from the west and the Weather Service is predicting a chance of snow hitting Roanoke from the West on Wednesday, they might just be advanced warning. (dd31400doughtie/mbr)1981 AP.'
