Potomac Special : ウィキペディア英語版 | West Virginian (Amtrak train)
The ''West Virginian'', later known as the ''Potomac Turbo'' and ''Potomac Special'', was a daily passenger train operated by Amtrak between Washington, D.C. and Parkersburg, West Virginia. This route was previously served by the Baltimore & Ohio's (B&O) train of the same name, and was the first of several services in the state of West Virginia established at the behest of US Representative Harley Orrin Staggers (D-West Virginia), the powerful chair of the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee. This patronage earned the train the derisive sobriquets "Harley's Hornet" and the "Staggers Special". == History ==
