A leisurely drive back in time with great views of the New River Gorge bridge from underneath.
Fayette Station Road的点评
点评：We'd been driving over the New River Gorge Bridge and viewing it from the visitor's center for years. We decided that this was the year we would do the drive and view the bridge from below. First a little information I got from their brochure. "Fayette Station Road was the main travel route for vehicles in this area for nearly 100 years and wound from the top of the gorge to the river and back. The gorge was a busy industrial center for almost 80 years, a boom time that was ushered in by the 1873 completion of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. Over 100 busy coal and railroad towns once dotted the landscape. Two towns flanked the New River here, Fayette and South Fayette. A vehicle bridge connected these two communities in 1889. Coal was mined and trains constantly ran during this industrial boom that slowed by the 1960s. This bridge was closed and condemned after the completion of the New River Gorge Bridge in 1977. A replica of the original bridge opened in 1998 and is now part of the scenic drive along this historic route."
The road is for the most part one way except at the beginning and end. It's really winding so you have to go slow but you'll want to to sightsee. There are walking trails that lead off from it (one goes to the Kaymoor Mine). About halfpoint is a parking area with restrooms. We had beautiful weather and spent time watching people enjoying the water. Altogether a great experience. It was fun imagining yourself back in time using the road.

翻译：多年来，我们一直开车经过新河峡谷大桥，并从游客中心观看它。我们决定今年也开车过来，从桥下俯瞰大桥。首先，我从他们的宣传册上了解了一些信息。近百年来，费耶特车站路一直是该地区车辆的主要通行路线，蜿蜒于峡谷顶部和河岸之间。在近80年的时间里，峡谷一直是繁忙的工业中心，随着1873年切萨皮克和俄亥俄铁路的建成，这一繁荣时期也随之而来。这里曾经星罗棋布着100多个繁忙的煤炭和铁路城镇。费耶特和南费耶特这两个城镇分别位于新河两侧。1889年，一座汽车桥连接了这两个社区。在这段工业繁荣时期，煤炭开采和火车不断通行，但到20世纪60年代，这一繁荣时期有所放缓。1977年新河峡谷大桥建成后，这座桥被关闭并被废弃。原桥的复制品于1998年开放，如今已成为这条历史路线沿途风景的一部分。
除了起点和终点外，这条路的大部分路段都是单行道。这条路蜿蜒曲折，所以你得慢慢走，但你肯定想去看看风景。这里有几条步道通往这里（其中一条通往凯莫尔矿）。大约半程的地方有一个带卫生间的停车场。天气很好，我们花了一些时间观察人们在水上玩耍。总而言之，这是一次很棒的体验。沿着这条路，想象自己回到过去，真是太有趣了。
