The following is an ongoing list of various
media that I feel will be of interest to anyone interested in Virginia
railroading (past & present). Whether you're just starting out, or have
been a diehard railfan for 25 years, these publications are sure to enhance your
knowledge and understanding of history, heritage, and operations. Please
e-mail me if you would like to make a
contribution to the list.
