Confession, I may have added the "West" from faulty memory. I'll take the rap for that bit. From over here, all America is west... He definitely mentioned Virginia.

OK, but ...

I'd recommend you leave it as West Virginia in subsequent retellings. It's much funnier that way ...

Link is long dead. Here is what I believe to be the same map image from another site:

Also in that map are the 'lost' railways to Withernsea and Hornsea; since they are marked as belonging to the NER, I can only imagine that this map was made before 1923.
