Louisa VA |
| Description: |
Louisa, population of about 1600, sits in the Virginia county of the same name. The place is a blast from the past and still has its frame passenger and freight stations, although neither seemed to be used any more. Fifty years ago the depot served up to six passenger trains a day, including the George Washington, Sportsman and FFV. Now it typically sees the passage of westbound empty CSX coal trains and Buckingham Branch freight. |

Antiques |
| Description: |
This is "Squashpenny Jct", the antique store at Doswell VA that sits adjacent to the CSX (ex RF&P) main and Buckingham Branch line. It's probably safe to say that a lot of things for sale in the shop are not as old as BB no.8, a 1951-build EMD. |
