Steam & Excursion > Buffalo Creek & GauleyDate: 10/09/15 03:53 Buffalo Creek & Gauley Author: m1bprr Many happy days spent on the BC&G 1962 - 64 getting to know the crews, staying at General Manager G. Richard Manning's home, dining on his gracious wife Hazel's dinner, these men really knew how to work for their living!

My late mentor Bud Rothaar, and hostler Bobby Cruthers do a wash job on #4. Ed K. cp Laurel Run Date: 10/09/15 07:07 Re: Buffalo Creek & Gauley Author: NKP715 Ed,
Thanks for posting. Always liked watching them working the B&O interchange from that bridge. Yes, they were very friendly and accommodating to visitors. In latter years, they required the signing of a release form, and IIRC, that was due to a fan's serious injury at Widen. The Georgia Pacific was a great bonus. Would go there early in the AM to see them head off into the woods; then, back to Dundon for the BC&G. |
