Posted by Mike Lockwood on March 15, 2011  Wow Doug, how deep is your treasure chest! Fantastic! Posted by Donald Haskel on March 15, 2011  This is a beautiful classic Virginian electric shot. I believe the coal mining devastation in the background was reclaimed in the late seventies. Posted by Scott Lothes on March 15, 2011  It's always a treat to see color views of the Virginian's electrics. Thanks so much for sharing. I believe, however, that the photo location is actually the town of Covel, about ten miles southeast of Mullens on the climb to Clarks Gap. Posted by George W. Hamlin on March 15, 2011  Nice piece of history! Posted by on March 15, 2011  This is not Mullens, it is Garwood or Covel or Giatto. Nice shot, you dont see much VGN around here. Posted by on March 15, 2011  Outstanding, Doug! I never came to appreciate how different the Virginian was. Posted by Rob Fox aka Hatchetman on March 15, 2011  This things are almost mythical. Did they really exist? I guess so!
