Next, we’ll head into the charming railroad town of Hinton, WV, for lunch (on your own) at The Market on Courthouse Square. Afterward, we’ll visit the John Henry Statue and the Great Bend Tunnel—the legendary site where the “Steel Drivin’ Man” triumphed in his iconic contest against the steam drill.
