Despite its reputation as an Appalachian coal hauler, the Chesapeake & Ohio offered high-profile passenger service linking Norfolk and Washington, D.C. with Cincinnati and Louisville. In addition, C&O cars served Chicago via the New York Central and New York via the Pennsylvania Railroad. This outstanding color history documents C&O passenger cars and trains from 1945 to the emergence of Amtrak in 1970.
