Abandoned West Virginia Coal Town & Long Trains, Thurmond West Virginia Trains, CSX Main Line Pt2

Exploring an abandoned coal town with Main Street right on the CSX railroad mainline. Coal train and grain train in Thurmond, West Virginia. Check out this old passenger station that Amtrak still uses. An old steam locomotive coaling tower is also here. Thurmond is now a national park and the buildings are being restored. Park rangers are here during the day and you can go inside the old train station. CSX, RJ Corman and Amtrak still serve Thurmond. This is Part 2 for the video I posted 2 days ago. This is an excellent tourist location and a perfect place for railfans. I went there with my friend Scott ( gambit 1960 ). We got there just after 11:30am and left around 9pm. In that 9+ hours we saw 2 coal trains, one grain train, Amtrak Cardinal and a maintenance of way train that was spraying weeds along the tracks. RJ Corman Railroad also has a branch that goes off the CSX mainline in Thurmond and goes to a coal loadout in Pax, West Virginia. No trains ran on the RJ Corman line on this Friday. Amtrak makes 3 round trips a week on this line between New York and Chicago. This is the second least used stop on Amtraks national system. Thurmond was the least used but Sanderson, Texas recently took the number one spot. The movie "Matewan" was partially shot here also. This video also features YouTuber walter langston who lives nearby here. I filmed this in 4K so make sure you adjust the settings to 4K!! Filmed July 9, 2021. Thanks for watching!
