Spent the holiday weekend in WV/VA. Saturday was NS from Williamson WV to Tripp. Not much happening though I did get one decent pic at Tunnel 1. Sunday was mostly on the old Clinchfield in the Breaks Gorge. Monday was a long hike and a swing by Natural Tunnel. Though it's NS track, the train I caught on the back side of the tunnel late in the day was CSX.
Nice shots as always! I had heard of the Natural Bridge in VA, but not the Natural Tunnel
It's a state park between Gate City and Duffield-a couple of miles from Copper Creek. The other side of the tunnel is the one you always see in photos. There's a trail and a chair lift to chose from.
I'm not sure how frequent the trains run-several a day the best I can tell. I saw a green nb signal and basically camped out for the one I got. The hike where I was on the back side is not as bad as the main side of the tunnel, both both are about 10 minutes back up.
