NS Elkhorn, WV
Two well-worn Dash 9s at full throttle are surrounded by their own sand and exhaust as they lift east bound loaded grain train 81E up the Elkhorn Grade. The setting afternoon sun illuminates the changing foliage. The former Norfolk and Western Pocahontas mainline follows the ascending path of Elkhorn Creek from its junction with the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy River to the summit tunnel under the Flat Top Mountain.
