In this chapter, you’ll see closeups of some of the many structures, bridges and rolling stock in action. View Screenshots

In this chapter we haul a load of coal up steep grades, over tall bridges & through deep tunnels. Enjoy a tour of the cab as we ride a TTI Railroad coal train making its run between Paris, KY and Maysville, KY. Then watch the coal being unloaded on the Ohio River.View Screenshots
