    The George Washington
    ,
    The Sportsman
    ,
    The Fast Flying
    Virginian, and other fine C&O passenger trains.
    Branch line service is also shown, including Quinnimont-Lester, W.Va.;
    Huntington-Lorado, W.Va.;
    Ashland-Elkhorn City, Ky.;
    Ronceverte-Bartow, W.Va.,

    Gas-Electric Motor train service is shown between Clifton Forge and Richmond.
    Mixed train service is found on several branches, including Bremo-Dillwyn, Va.; Balcony Falls-Lexington, Va.; Gauley-Greendale, W. Va., and the Virginia Air Line branch.
    Conditional train stops are listed.
    Optional routes for scenic trips are offered.
    Steamer connections at Old Point and Norfolk are shown.
    Full-page advertisements tout C&O wartime freight service; wheels . . .
    rolling to victory; Chessie’s Civilian Defense Service; and War Bonds and Stamps.
    A smaller ad touts C&O’s dining service and the C&O suggests taking the train to both make your auto last longer and to help the war effort.
    A centerfold map shows the C&O and its connections.
    The timetable shows light soil and wear but is otherwise in excellent condition.
    Buyer pays .50 shipping in the U.S. . . . and check out my other eBay C&O auction items.
    Thanks for looking!
    Praise God!
