The Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad is a heritage railroad based in Romney, West Virginia. The railroad operates excursion trains over a former Baltimore and Ohio Railroad line that runs between Green Spring and Petersburg. The West Virginia Rail Authority owns the line and freight service is provided by the South Branch Valley Railroad. The Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad's excursion trains run from Romney to Moorefield with occasional longer trips to Petersburg. This train was established by the state of West Virginia in 1978, but service began in 1991.
