Western WV mining/logging NG RRs

I'm looking for any info on any Narrow Gauge Railroads that may have operated towards the western or central end of West Virginia.. So far it seems all i hear is of Lines that operated towards the east more. Especially any lines that may have interacted with Ohio river traffic at all???? Thank You

Mike,

Get a copy of George W. Hilton, American Narrow Gauge Railroads. He lists about a dozen West Virginia roads. The book is available at Barnes & Noble and other major book stores. Hope this helps.
