WVOL in SBVRR Caboose

West Virginia Operation Lifesaver presenters participated in the third annual Petersburg Train Show. An Operation Lifesaver display and locomotive simulator were set up in a South Branch Valley Railroad caboose. Many people attended the three day event where WVOL offered rides on an antique handcar, and Appalachian Rail Excursions offered motorcar rides.
