| | | Cass Scenic Railroad is a West Virginia state park that offers excursion rides on steam-driven Shay locomotives to the top of mountains, tours of the restored company town of Cass and lodging at unique vacation cottages in the former residences. Other attractions include a diorama of the town of Cass at its peak, the local Last Run Restaurant, historical museum and behind-the-scene locomotive shop tours. Constructed by the West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company in 1901, Cass featured the largest double-band sawmill in the world and could handle 35 million feet of lumber per year. Behind Cass was Cheat Mountain, which was criss-crossed with 81 miles of railroad track, accessible by massive Shay steam-powered locomotives. After operations ceased in 1960, the railroad and buildings were sold for scrap – but it was all saved at the last minute thanks to a railroad enthusiast and lawmakers. The Cass Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. Full background and many more photos from Cass: http://www.abandon...ass-west-virginia/ Ruins of the mill

I attended the Cass Railfan Weekend in 2011, and it was an amazing experience. It was quite expensive, but they did three runs per stop. MP .7 on Old Spruce – Spruce alignment
