The Shockley Branch served the the shaft mine at Glen White, WV which closed in 1945.  The E.E. White Coal Co. began shipping coal from the mine on July 1, 1909.  The branch connected with the main at Glen White Junction between Surveyor and Eccles.

I found out this past Sunday that there was a Shockley Branch of the VGN.  I would model it if I could be sure I wouldn't be considered an egomaniac or that I wouldn't BE an egomaniac.  I haven't been a big fan of people naming stuff after themselves on their layouts.  Exceptions might have to be made for such an opportunity.


Likely I will order the documents.  It appears to have been abandoned in 1948.  Is there anything anyone can tell me otherwise?
Thank you,
