This poster has an architectural feel to it. From wiki article:
The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway (C&O) was a Class I
railroad formed in 1869 in Virginia from many smaller
railroads begun in the 19th century. Tapping the coal
reserves of West Virginia, it formed the basis for the
City of Newport News and the coal piers on Hampton Roads,
and forged a rail link to the midwest, eventually reaching
Columbus, Cincinnati and Toledo in Ohio and Chicago, Illinois.
Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, in 1972 it became
part of the Chessie System, along with the Baltimore and Ohio
and Western Maryland Railway. In 1980, the Chessie system
combined with Seaboard Coast Line Industries to form CSX Corporation,
which by 1987 had merged all its railroad subsidiaries into CSX Transportation,
one of seven Class I railroads operating in North America at the beginning
of the 21st century. The C&O itself disappeared in a merger into CSX on September 2, 1987.
