[QUOTE]Originally posted by notelvis: [QB] Mr. Norman, I'm at work (stealing a few moments from my employer) and don't have access to my timetables or Official Guides from the 1970's - Having laid out my disclaimer, I seem to recall having read an article in Trains......roughly fall of 1974 or early 1975...... where the writer was travelling on a USA Railpass. In the article he spoke of riding the Mountaineer but mentions the switching in the night where they disconnected it from the James Whitcomb Riley (now the Cardinal). It seems like this was done at either the Catlettsburg, KY station or possibly even at the junction between Catlettsburg and Huntington where the former N&W crossed the C&O. Given the timing of the article, I'd say that he was likely taking this trip during the early summer of 1974. I'll not be home until 9:30pm tonight but will try to look that up tomorrow. Oh......and a sidebar - The articles you mailed to me did arrive in a timely fashion and I have enjoyed reading them. I wanted to reread them another time before bringing what I've learned to this forum. I'm not ready for the test yet! [/QB][/QUOTE]
