Re: Appalachian Western Railway
The Cincinnati South Eastern was wondering if you still want the line of the former B&O across Southern Ohio. We can negoate pricing for a sale and or lease. PM me and we will talk a price if you want to sell it

Re: Appalachian Western Railway
The AW is not looking to sell or lease this line as it is a key part of our system. But depending on how many trains you're planning on running, you could have trackage rights.I&Ofan4life wrote:The Cincinnati South Eastern was wondering if you still want the line of the former B&O across Southern Ohio.

*To further clarify; the line isn't very busy but it has a few high priority intermodals that can't be delayed and the line isn't built to accomodate a high amount of traffic as sidings are far and few between.

Re: Appalachian Western Railway
We were planning on running alot of coal and grain traffic on the line and maybe more but we picked up the Peavine so we probably wouldnt need the line. We would like to interchange with you at Cincinnati if you would want to

Re: Appalachian Western Railway
Yeah that would require some major upgrades. Sure we can interchange in Cincinnati.I&Ofan4life wrote:We were planning on running alot of coal and grain traffic on the line and maybe more but we picked up the Peavine so we probably wouldnt need the line.

Re: Appalachian Western Railway
Due to my family taking a summer long trip to Alaska and a lack of internet access. I will be pulling the AW out of the group. In the group, all of the AW lines revert to their current real world owners or state of abandonment.

The second is Virginian inspired 4201.
The third being VIrginian & Western inspired 4203.
