Have a look through this old book.

And from a previous thread:

I am on first name terms with the Apple Express, Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe etc.

Here's a link that'll take you to three videos of the last of the great Norfolk and Western steam trains in the Pocahontas coalfields. Pay attention to the last train in video number 3 - I used to stand by the tracks as a boy and watch trains just like it come hurtling by, bound for the Port of Baltimore.
