Scrambled eggs, bacon, grits with cheddar cheese, fresh fruit salad and baked goods highlight a good meal served in the dining rooms of both business cars. Bloody Marys and other morning restoratives are available for those who need to jump-start their day. The last of our passengers board at Huntington. The C. P. Huntington Chapter NRHS has assisted in publicizing this public trip. It is a warm and pleasant day - a great day to be out touring the countryside by rail.
Lunch is served buffet style in the dining room.
The menu offers a selection of triple decker sandwiches, salads and fruit. Our surprise is freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, thanks to Nancy McOwen. Now we are rolling thru the scenic New River Gorge. The river looks swollen by rain from the recent hurricane. I see folks, in canoes and rafts, enjoying the river.
