Description
The Winchester & Western (W&W) Railroad, chartered in 1919, constructed a line westward from Winchester and reached Wardensville by 1921. By 1944, after several reorganizations, the line had been cut back to Gore, the present western end of the line. Most of the line constructed by the Cumberland Valley Railroad southward from Hagerstown to Winchester was purchased from Conrail in the mid 1980's. W&W freight trains enter the Norfolk Southern's Shomo Yard in Hagerstown on interchange rights.
