From Railstream, LLC.: A nice EMD pair passing through Landgraff, West Virginia this morning, by the Elkhorn Inn. The leader is an SD70ACC, which was rebuilt from a standard cab SD70 locomotive.
The only existing SD70s in mainline service in North America belong to the Canadian National, who inherited them from the Illinois Central.

Re: this article on Keystone (5 minutes from the Elkhorn Inn) by Dave Tabler: There is a book from 1912: "Keystone- the S***m & Gomorrah of Today" - and it's Definitely worth a read... https://www.scribd.com/doc/187688154/S***m-Gomorrah-of-Today-or-the-History-of-Keystone An elderly lady we met a long time ago told us that during WWII when she was a teen she always lied and said she was Not from Keystone, as when the soldiers would hear she was from Keystone they'd whoop and whistle! According to a friend who is now 75, Keystone's "fun" was still going strong thru the 1970s... https://www.appalachianhistory.net/2018/03/suffice-to-say-young-bucks-gaped-in-awe.html
