Notice that Kathryn said '...the train was almost to Crockett before she stopped playing..' This is another piece of evidence that the Eastbound train, coming from Bristol and headed for Roanoke was the primary target for Link's photo and recording. Thank you Permaglo for putting this up. Mrs. Dotson tried for years to teach me to play piano, to no avail.
good find- very interesting. I first heard the Rural Retreat recording on an LP in the mid 80's. i thought it very strange in a wonderful way- it took me many years to find it, and it's nice to hear Mrs Dodson's story. Thanks for letting us know that she only very recently passed away
