This is a freelance railroad located in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Maryland. It is a single track mainline with multiple passing sidings which services many industries and business along the way. Jamestown is the main town with Akers being the mining community. The layout has a large yard which services both East and West bound trains and has a large servicing center.
