C&O 1308, engineer's side view |
| Description: |
C&O 1308 has been on display at a park in Huntington, WV for about as long as i can remember. Still in relatively good condition considering being left outdoors for over 50 years, the engine is a reminder of C&O's presence in Huntington and many other places as well. Note the donated B&O CPL (color-position signal), salvaged, perhaps, from the abandonment of the B&O's ex-Ohio River Railroad line from Huntington to Kenova, WV around 1965. It was raining on this day in June 1992 (I don't remember which day), so I got out of Dad's car, grabbed the photos, and left! |

C&O 1308, cab and tender view |
| Description: |
Note the slanted cab on C&O's 1308, built by Baldwin in 1949 and on display at a park in Huntington, WV for many years (over 50!) This view shows the cab, the tender,and the stairway used at the time for tours of the cab. I don't recall the exact day in June 1992 but at least getting this photo was worth standing in the rain that day! |
