Ashland is an Amtrak intercity train station in Ashland, Virginia, serving Northeast Regional trains bound for Richmond, Newport News and Norfolk as well as many points north.
The tracks are lined with a cobblestone median in the center of town, making it a popular train-watching site for railfans.
It had separate waiting rooms for whites and blacks, served by a single ticket booth in the center of the building.
The former black waiting room is now a museum filled with various RF&P railroad artifacts, including blueprints, model railroad trains, a bench that was once on display at the Smithsonian Museum, local newspaper and locally related magazine articles.
