After getting rained out on my camping/fishing trip over at the AEP Recreation Lands, I was driving home when all of the sudden, I was driving across an old railroad bed! Needless to say, I was quite surprised!

Knowing the direction I was heading, I figured I was looking at the remnants of the B&O from Cambridge. I have to assume that when this area was an active strip mine, this railroad hauled coal out of the mining area.

The last photo is of the track in Cumberland-this looks like the Byesville Scenic Railroad has reached to this small town in their efforts to recover the line. Their goal is to reach the Wilds just a few miles away.
