Viewing Album:  Southern West Virginia Trip 2013
 
By:Dave Eagen
Dates:10/10/2013 - 10/13/2013
Album Info:I live in Buffalo,NY and this album is a collection of pictures i took on a trip to see NS's Pocahontas Division in action. The action wasn't there, a lot of waiting was required. And although the weather was against us also, we made the most of it and left with some great pics and memories to go with it. Hope to return soon.
