Cheifton/C0.0 (miles from Chiefton.)







Cheifton was located at the beginning of the Fairmont Helens Run Subdivision. The subdivision ran from Cheifton to Ida May, a distance of 4.5 miles with a half mile secondary track to Carolina known as the Helens Run Secondary Track. Cheifton had a engine house and a rather big yard that held 375 cars.
