Amtrak’s Cardinal #50 proceeds on former Chesapeake and Ohio rail through Orange, Virginia as the train approaches the interchange with Norfolk Southern’s Washington to Atlanta mainline on Friday, October 10, 2008. The Buckingham Branch Railroad now leases the track the Cardinal is operating on from CSX.
With Northeast Regional trains, Auto Train and long distance service to Florida, New Orleans and Chicago, a lot of train riding and train watching can be had.
