Pocahontas

I look at the railcam at Landgraff WVa every day.  It is situated in the NS Pocahontas division.  Apart from historical people the name also reminds me of coal.  I have two coal trains.  One consists of five Bachmann Big Hauler 1:22.5 three bay hoppers and the other is eight Aristo 2-bay offset hoppers.  I usually run battery operation which means I use a ninth Aristo hopper as battery car.  I really like the offset hoppers; they seem more charismatic than the straight sided hoppers.  Two of the Aristo hoppers have an alternative load when I want to use them in a MOW train.  They have shortened Bachmann coal loads (1:22.5 Big Hauler range) suitably painted to look like ballast rather than coal.

Coming back to Pocahontas I give a link to anyone wealthy and wanting a UK residence which has a Pocahontas connection.  For the record, for those with loads of $$$$$, £2 million = $2.57 million. :lol:
