Remarks & Notes

As seen from the front door step of Nenni's Department Store in downtown Matewan NKP 765 leads an NS employee special eastbound toward Ought One. In today's world of 'big box' retailers it was refreshing to see this local department store still doing a brisk boot repair business as witnessed by the shelves inside the store. No doubt this isn't the first steam locomotive those walls have seen pass by outside. Click here to view a video of this scene.

Pictures of things often unseen in the world of railroading. Interesting equipment, operations, and people that help the railroad go around.
