Other Information

A shadow of its former self.  I believe Cumbo Tower has been torn down and the Conrail (ex-Pennsy) trackage has been abandoned and torn out for a long time.  CSX uses a siding there for maintenance storage.

Amtrak Schedule  (Times are for the Martinsburg Station.  Amtrak does not stop at Cumbo.)
#30/#29 Capitol Limited: 2/day; EB 11:45am/WB 4:50pm (schedule effective 27OCT2002)
Shedule link

Other Notes:  Cumbo Rd. goes underneath the tracks through a drainage tunnel.  Need to park off side of road (not much or a road) in a farm field entrance and walk up to tracks.  I believe the tower was torn down around 1999.  Used to be a busy interchange (B&O and Pennsy).  The yard and interchange tracks are long gone but there is a siding used for railway equipment.
