Sandhi Kozsuch – Editor

Much has been written in books about the well-known Appalachian Railroads such as the B&O, C&O, Clinchfield, L&N, N&W, Pennsylvania, Southern, and Virginian. Individually they are well documented. But collectively, their exemplary design, leadership and financial success are not always truly appreciated, especially online.

A Johnson City, TN native, I’m Sandhi (Sandy) Kozsuch the Editor of Appalachian-Railroads.org. Don’t let the spelling of my name throw you, I spent my early years in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountain region, and still sport remnants of a southern accent. Other career and train stops throughout my life include Richmond, Charlotte, New York City, and now the Atlanta area…..all excellent railroad destinations.

After a 50-year career in television and the internet, it was time to enjoy my life-long interests and hobbies as a second career. In my youth, I spent countless hours watching the Clinchfield, the ET&WNC, and the Southern Railway trains parading past my school. Now, I can build upon and share those great memories and railroads through this website and its two partner websites: Clinchfield.org and Southern-Railroads.org.

Website Goals

My goals for this endeavor are simple:

  • Create new Appalachian Railroad railfans
  • Preserve and further explore the stories and the history
  • Share the new information we find, and link you to the information that exists
  • Create online guides for the railroads as they exist today
  • Honor and highlight the individuals and organizations who have these same goals, and those who have already given so much of their time in decades past.

The content of this website will be donated to the archives of the region and the railroad historical associations. This website is a non-commercial blog, but striving to make it a solid historical resource noteworthy for archives in the future.

Appalachian-Railroads.org – A Work in Progress

I’m hoping to have the website in good shape initially by the end of 2025. However, I know true completion is years away. This website is non-commercial and is meant to be used for educational and entertainment purposes. Even though we try to have multiple sources for each page on this site, we cannot guarantee total accuracy.

Please come back and visit Appalachian-Railroads.org in the years ahead. Don’t hesitate to contact me using the form below if you have similar interests in these railroads or in model railroading.

Thanks for stopping by.
