Bringing A Nashville Steam Locomotive Back To Life, This West Virginia Morning

On this West Virginia Morning, an historic steam locomotive that occupied Nashville’s Centennial Park for decades will soon hit the rails again. John Boyle of the Appalachia Mid-South Newsroom reports on a yearslong restoration effort to save the train.

Also some lawmakers are back in Charleston this week for interim meetings and canvassing starts today for last week’s primary election.
