- On the afternoon of August 20, 2022 the Locust Heights & Western Railroad of Clarksburg, WV hosted their first photo charter since 2019. All of the little road's equipment was featured, with the spotlight of course on Keith Mason's Class A Climax. Home-built in 1974, the unique geared steam engine has been pulling trains on the 3/4 mile railroad for nearly 50 years. The LH&W normally operates only on Wednesday evenings, but this photo charter offered a rare opportunity to visit on a weekend and get some great photos as the sun dropped low.
Huge thanks to Matt Wilson, Walter Scriptunas II, the Mason family and the entire team of LH&W volunteers for all their work putting on this great event.
Beautiful little railroad!
It sure is!
Cool little railroad, put it my list to hopefully check out this season. Great video and thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching! Definitely worth a visit if you can get there on a Wednesday evening.
Great video! I enjoyed bringing my 1930 Ford Model A Town Sedan there for the event.
Thanks! Your model A is beautiful and really added to the experience, thanks for bringing it.

The New River Gorge Bridge! You came around my Area! Very Nice Video, I have heard about the Railroad up there but really never thought to much about it till now!
They normally only run Wednesday evenings and thus tend to fly under the radar but it is well worth a visit.
Very unique locomotive!
It sure is! Nothing else like it.
I Got a Locomotive New York Central 5406.
Are you going to railfan the Christmas lantern express in December?
I wouldn't miss it, though I don't know which dates I'll be chasing yet.
Awesome! Jealous that you got to go this this.
Thanks! Keep an eye on the "Casshews" facebook page, they try to do this annually.
