Ed Treesh was in Richwood, West Virginia in October 1958. There he took this photo of a Cherry River Boom and Lumber Company railbus.

Interesting bus!  I like that exhaust stack and  muffler.  And the stove stack in the back!

Have you been able to confirm the location and owner was not Buffalo Creek & Gauley after all?

It looks like a Mack/Brill car, but the front radiator is an odd shape for a Mack.

As I have stated/posted previously, that is NOT related to the Buffalo Creek & Gauley RR.

Hood and grill appearto be from an International truck.
