Thank you for your kind remarks, arktiem! I'd love to write a few more historic scenarios. Having actually grown up and lived in the region that this route is in has helped in adding a little more realism to my scenarios. I incorporated the Preston County Buckwheat Festival into another scenario, tying it in with the West Virginia Northern Railroad which actually had a track that led into the festival ground. I also did the shortlived Amtrak "Shenandoah" based as closely as possible on a real schedule. If you (or anyone else) has some ideas for "real" scenarios, let me know! I'd love to do a sequel to this "Killing Water" scenario featuring Rowlesburg, but that would likely require an alteration to the route itself in order to portray it correctly.

As an old railroader and an avid history nut I immediately subscribed to this the moment I came across it. Let me just say that this is a truly excellent scenario that is quite unique and exceptionally well crafted in every way. This isn't just a work order you perform... this is an experience. It is my sincere hops that others who come across this gem will experience this horrific night through the railroaders who were there. I truly hope you will create other historic scenarios as this type of history needs telling and remembering. Thank you so much for this incredible work.

Thanks for that nice but not so nice workshop, very interesting about the floods. Thanks for sharing.

Just from reading about those buried GP35s now I want to go dig them out

Very nice scenario and interesting story line. Thanks for sharing.
