Pennsy/N&W at Davy, W VA 10/21/2012
Author: robj

Seems this is the Twin Branch tunnel, highway tunnel is the Davy tunnel?  Probably good this was a pretty overcast day, made for even lighting
1)  First a WB thru the tunnel
2)  Next the helper set heads west, I think this is the longer shove?  Don't know why I only got the long shot out of the tunnel
3)  but I did turn around as they round the curve west

4)  Some time to wait, neat spot across old bridge, almost no traffic, very nice to wait.  Patch is running out of time, last big trip
5)  WB heads toward tunnel
6)  8103/8102 helpers shove east

Very nice pictures, Rob. I miss those old CPL's down that way. 2012 seems like 100 years ago.....

Wonderful to be able to catch that heritage pair more than once paired up in pusher service. Nice photography also!

I've spent alot of time at that location (Called Marytown on the railroad).

The old bridge, along with the CPLS are a fond memory.
