West Virginia Night Express

The ''West Virginia Night Express'' (also sometimes called the ''Wheeling Night Express'') was an American named train of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O) on its route between Chicago, Illinois and Wheeling, West Virginia, with major station stops in Willard and Newark, Ohio. The B&O inaugurated the ''West Virginia Night Express'' in 1912. It was discontinued in 1956 due to declining passenger demand.
==History==
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was chartered in 1827 and grew to be one of the largest passenger railways in the United States, often by acquiring other, smaller railroads. B&O trains began operating between Chicago and Wheeling in 1880.〔
From 1912 until 1956 the B&O provided overnight sleeping car service between Chicago's Grand Central Station and Wheeling, West Virginia on the ''Wheeling Night Express'', Train No. 46.〔 The reverse route, Train No. 45, was served by the ''Chicago Night Express''. In 1928, the routes were consolidated with Train Nos. 15/16 from Willard, Ohio to Chicago.〔 During World War II, the ''West Virginia Night Express'' was consolidated with Train No. 9, the ''Pittsburgh-Chicago Express'' on the western end of the run from the junction at Willard, Ohio to Chicago. In 1946, the ''West Virginia Night Express'' resumed independent operation from Willard to Chicago.〔
