Travel to West Virginia and lower Pennsylvania

[MikeVT]

I'll be traveling down into WV and lower PA over the next couple of weeks. Any recommendations on towns/areas to visit. I'm more interested in historical trains/buildings/towns than seeing current tains.

I recommend that when you get into West Virginia, stop at the town of Grafton to see the historic B&O station there. It used to be a hotel as well, and now serves as a museum. The town of Morgantown also has a historic station, designed by legendary B&O architect, E. Francis Baldwin. And up in the northern West Virginia panhandle, in the town of Wheeling, is also the Wheeling station, now occupied by the Northern West Virginia Community College.

Hi:

Go to Elkins, WV - beautiful old Western Maryland RR station - still used by a number of tourist trains - especially over the summer - some short & some long trips - worth the time. Here's the website - http://www.mountainrail.com/
