Looks like ( for some reason ) Paintsville rated a rather substantial passenger station back in the C&O days.

This is my hometown and what a railroad history! Yes, there use to be a large passenger service on the Big Sandy. From this angle, Chase's back is to what use to be the "engine yard" which is now just a single track that dead-ends. This section use to be home to a lot of local business, such as a Woodchip loader, a Pepsi Plant, a hardware store to name a few. This also use to be the "Cab Track." Lots of great memories!!!
