Louisa Station - Louisa, Virginia

The Louisa Station is one of the few surviving stations along the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad's Piedmont subdivision (see here). Build in 1899 to the C&O's 1892 standard design, the station was in use until 1979. It is now used as a storage building for a feed store. For more information about Louisa and the Piedmont subdivision, see this excellent history.

    A really tender and beautiful depiction of an old woman who worked her whole life to bring life to her little town. Nice job!

    Thanks. Bringing "life to her little town", that's a nice way to put it.
