Planning rail travel in West Virginia
Fares in and out of West Virginia generally move in tiers that only step upward, and sleeping-car space on long-distance services through the state tends to sell out well ahead of coach. Step-free access varies considerably between staffed stations and unstaffed halts, so it is worth confirming before you travel.
