The Clinchfield Railroad in the Coal Fields

The book covers the Clinchfield's history, and deals specifically with its towns, locomotives, cars, structures, and operations in the coalfields of Eastern Kentucky and Southwestern Virginia. Interviews with retirees and employees, first-hand accounts of operations, and detailed treatment of locomotives, equipment, and trains make this an ideal book for railfans interested in Appalachian coal roads and for modelers. A chapter on modeling the line is included. This book is the culmination of 12 years research.
