Synopses & Reviews
See the C&O railroad as it was modeled in its glorious steam era by author Dan Zugelter. In the book we travel westward from Hinton, W. Va., on the New River Subdivision through Quinnimont, Prince, Thurmond, Sewell, and the New River Gorge. The second part of the book follows a trip from Hinton over the Alleghany Subdivision through Alderson, White Sulphur Springs, and Alleghany. Engines and crews change at Hinton, and pushers cut off at Alleghany just as in actual operation.
About the Author
Dan Zugelter's interest in model railroading began with a Lionel train under his childhood Christmas tree and a model railroad built in his parent's attic in the late 1930's. His interest was renewed in the 1970's upon discoveing the Chesapeake and Ohio Historical Society--he has been a member ever since.
