Logan Partners Push Virginian Railroad Extension to Gilbert
Logan coal operators and leaders from the Logan Chamber of Commerce pressed the Virginian railroad to extend its line from Elmore to Gilbert in Mingo county to give Logan coal fields a direct tidewater route. A Huntington conference with C. and O. president George W. Stevens preceded the plan which could spark a railroad war. The target line would cover roughly 50 miles due to terrain despite a 35 mile air distance.
