Here is Part 2 for this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/qZWgttmYZKrQaMY.html

I know the 10 Ton limit sign is for the cars but it's amusing to see it attached to a railroad bridge.😄

Neat old semaphore signals at the station.

The center looks more like an old Motel .

This little town fascinated me last year when you were there...and I'm still taken by it! Thanks for going back and showing it to us again!! Would love to see it in person someday.

Thurmond, is quite a small town, great to see some of those old buildings preserved, and have a active Amtrak station. I rode Amtrak to the Greenbrier, back when i was a kid and rode through Thurmond, good memories. Not surprising, your new furry friend seems to be very playful. Thanks JT

Why would Amtrak build a new platform for a station for a train that very seldom stops there, it only stops there when passengers are getting on or off which are only about 10 or less passengers per month.

It doesn't cost Amtrak much if anything at all to maintain a "stop" here. The station is not staffed. The park service owns the building. Since the train goes by here anyhow, it is a "win-win" to take care of any passengers that may want to board or de-train here.

This was a nice short video of trains that passed through Thurmond, West Virginia in the late afternoon of 30 May 2023, Jaw Tooth! I thought that I remember hearing that the reason that Amtrak's Cardinal passenger trains stop at Thurmond, West Virginia was to "kiss up" to Senator Richard Byrd for him to approve funding from the Federal Government for Amtrak. I am looking forward to your upcoming video on the trains that you saw at Thurmond, West Virginia earlier in the day.

Great video!

I love seeing rail depots getting repurposed. I know a guy who owns a 80's style monster truck and does build them for others. His shop is a old 1800's rail depot building. He parks his monster truck where the tracks would have came in front of the depot. He's built a garage cover where the tracks had went.

Looks like they'll pull up the switch rail and lay the new rail on the ties. I'm sure there's an FRA defect in the split rail heads. Speaking of rail, the oldest rail I've seen is 1905 and still in use.
