COAL COUNTRY Railfanning!! Heavy CSX Trains in the C&O Coal Town of Thurmond, WV!!

6/27/19:

This was a fun day... Probably the most fun I've had railfanning CSX in awhile... While power was the same as back home, this was a sector of railfanning that was entirely new to me. Thurmond, WV is the closest thing you can get to "the way it was." The historic town has changed little since the C&O days, and it is beautifully preserved as a National Park. The town lies in the New River Gorge, once the center of coal mining in West Virginia, and the CSX New River Sub is the "Main Street" in town! Also in town is an old C&O Coaling tower, and coolest of all, an active coal branch line on which we saw three trains! The Beautiful Scenery, "Living" History, and Heavy Unit Trains make Thurmond a place well worth visiting!
