Virginian Railway

The Virginian Railway was synonomous with coal. One of the few railways where coal drags had priority over passenger trains. The Virginian became part of the Norfolk & Western in 1959, but many people still count it among their favourite railroads. The Virginian was known for its massive steam and electric locomotives.
