Viewing Album:  Danville to Shipman
 
By:Dave Crawford
Dates:3/7/2025 - 3/7/2025
Album Info:This album merges my enthusiasm for trains and women's basketball. My brother and I attended the Women's ACC Basketball Tournament in Greensboro, NC. During the downtime, we were able to check out the Pomona Yard, the Greensboro and High Point Stations. This album contains photographs from our trip back to Virginia on US Route 29 with stops in Danville (NS Danville District), Chatham (NS Danville District), Altavista (NS Altavista District), and Shipman (NS Washington District). A great trip with an abundance and variety of rail traffic!
