Wow... Where I grew up in eastern VA, it was N & W and the Southern. There was an N & W branch line a couple of tenths of a mile from where I lived, with a siding at a sand pit. We used to climb all over the hopper cars several times a week. I think it was the Southern that ran the train ferry across the Chesapeake Bay to the Eastern Shore; the south point being at Little Creek, very close to where I lived. Traveling on the northern side of Hampton Roads, one would see C & O. During the summer, we almost always went to West Virginia, and I remember seeing Virginian coal trains winding through the Appalachians.... Yea... I'm old, don't say it....
