Winston, Virginia

[NW Mailing List]

The line NE from Charlottesville through Orange to Culpepper is NS, but  
it's former SR.  The line that starts due East from Charlottesville  then 
loops up through Gordonsville to Orange is now Buckingham Branch,  former CSX, 
ex-C&O Mountain Division.  There's no former N&W in  that neck of the woods.  

>From the maps that come up in a Google search of  Winston, VA the tracks 

there are probably NS/SR.  Time precluded a  definitive investigation.

I do a lot of traveling in Orange and Culpeper Counties and  have found 
some wonderful railroad type sites including the restored Orange,  VA station 
and an old general store in Winston, VA right off the tracks which  I assume 
are Norfolk Southern tracks (Norfolk & Western).  Is there  some source that 
is available to obtain more information about Winston, VA and  any other 
significant buildings, track, or stations in this area?  I must  not be 
looking in the right places as I am pretty much coming up with  blanks.  Any help 
would be greatly appreciated.  Having been raised  in Wytheville, I am glad 
to see that the fundraising for the Rural Retreat  station seems to be going 
well.  Have a great weekend.
