RADFORD – Joyce Sims of Radford won The Radford Photo Club April theme contest with a photo of a train crossing the New River below Glencoe Museum in Radford on April 11.
Her photo of a steam train in the same location taken in 2015 tied for first in the open category with a photo of the Brooklyn Bridge taken by Tracy Burlingame of Riner during her recent trip to New York City.
