Norfolk Southern shutting down the ex-NYC West Virginia Line

My guess is that route will be shut down from Gloucester, OH to some point in Western WV, and from New Lexington OH to the Columbus area.    I think the Ohio Central still runs a coal train from Gloucester north to New Lexington, where it entered the OC system to go to Conesville OH with the loads.   Not sure if that is still moving or not.
