On a brisk winter like evening along the banks of the New River in the community of Prince, a woman passenger studies her novel from the cozy, Art-Deco style passenger station. Serving Amtrak's Cardinal three days a week, it's the day after Thanksgiving and the train is less than hour from arriving, already snaking its west through the Gorge west of Hinton at the current time of 6:46 pm. The train will come and go in an efficient five minute station stop and upon its departure, the interior lights will be turned off, the station locked up, and the community of Prince will return to its still secluded ambiance.
