Interstate Railroad

At Maytown, the railroad turned west, continuing to follow the Guest River (and crossing it several times) via Riverview, Tacoma, Ramsey, and Hawthorne to Norton, where it interchanged with the Norfolk and Western Railway and Louisville and Nashville Railroad.

From there it generally paralleled the Powell River past Josephine, Blackwood, and Kelly View to Appalachia.

There it interchanged with the Southern Railway and again with the L&N and turned north alongside Callahan Creek to the main yard at Andover.

Several branches continued north alongside creeks, ending at Wentz, Roda, and Derby.

As a part of Norfolk Southern's 30th anniversary, the company painted 20 new locomotives into predecessor schemes.
