Details

A steam-powered titan once thundered down the rails where city streets now sleep and echo with secrets. Roanoke is alive with tales beneath its industrial skin.

This self-guided audio tour walks you through downtown’s unexpected side, where historic courtrooms meet locomotive legends. Turn corners most never notice. Discover stories few ever hear.

Who stood defiant in the courthouse shadows during a scandal that shook the region’s justice system? What hidden pact linked railway tycoons and civic leaders beneath the clang of Norfolk and Western 1218? And why does a forgotten car in the Transportation Museum still draw whispers from locals decades later?

Wander from solemn marble to iron and steam. Trace the city’s pulse from legal showdowns to mechanical marvels. Each step unpacks Roanoke’s drama and invites you to see the ordinary transformed by history’s spark.

Start now. Follow the thunder and reveal what others overlook.
