Thurmond is a town in Fayette County, West Virginia, United States, on the New River. The population was five at the 2010 census. During the heyday of coal mining in the New River Gorge, Thurmond was a prosperous town with a number of businesses and facilities for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. The town was the filming location for John Sayles' 1987 movie ''Matewan'' since it still possesses many of the characteristics of a 1920s Appalachian coal town. Today, much of Thurmond is owned by the National Park Service for the New River Gorge National River. The C&O passenger railway depot in town was renovated in 1995 and now functions as a Park Service visitor center. The entire town is a designated historic district on the National Register of Historic Places. During the June 14, 2005, city elections, six of the city's seven residents sought elected office. ==Rail Transportation==
Amtrak, the national passenger rail service, provides service to Thurmond under the Cardinal route.
