ROANOKE, Va. — The O. Winston Link Museum is now featuring an exhibit of rarely seen images by the famed rail photographer.

“Unseen Link,” which opened on Sept. 14 and runs through Nov. 6, features original prints never before shown at the museum. The images are drawn from the Historical Society of Western Virginia archives and the O. Winston Link estate. While he is best known for his Norfolk & Western photos, the “Unseen Link” exibit draws from his work on the Canadian Pacific Railway and Long Island Rail Road, some of his commercial enterprises, and other images from New York, Canada, and Louisiana.
