Deepwater local
Title:  Deepwater local
Description:  Virginian had a line that went to Deepwater, on the Kanawha River, to interchange wtih the NYC. During a trip to chase C&O 614 in January of 1985, I lucked onto this run on the line. It was around 0730, really too early for much light there, but I took the shots I could.
