Updated my Track Diagram. Not completely accurate. I don't have the quarry in or the Mountain Wye, but now it's updated to show both mainlines and approximation of the different rooms.

I'd like to take the time to congratulate Frank Barnes on his 28 year career with AWVR. Mr. Barnes joined the Allegany and Western Virginia Railroad November 13th 1981 and had a mostly quiet career, but on his 28th year, he was involved in the wildest event in Railroading History in the Eastern United States.

AWVR 777's control stand malfunctioned and activated itself, putting the locomotive into full throttle, as it escaped out of Fuller Yard and tore up the tracks through Pennsylvania. Mr. Barnes and his conductor, William Colson, gave chase to the half-mile long 39 car train, coupling up at almost 70 mph and slowing the train down just enough to narrowly save itself from flying off the curve in Stanton as the train barely balanced itself on one set of wheels. After the curve, their chase locomotive had burned off its brakes and lost its engine. All they could do is hold on, but luckily, Conductor Colson's Cousin, Ned Oldham, a lead welder for AWVR, was able to drive his F350 alongside the out of control train and Conductor Colson was able to leap from the chase locomotive to his pickup, and subsequently onto the forward steps of AWVR 777, climbing into the cab and reigning in the thundering train to a stop. Amazingly, there were no fatalities, and only Conductor Colson was injured during this event, injuring this foot during the chase. He is expected to make a full recovery.

Engineer Barnes, Conductor Colson, and Lead Welder Oldham will be forever in our thoughts, and forever in out debt for saving countless lives on that cold, wet day 13 years ago.
