The Hopewell Subdivision is a railroad line owned by CSX Transportation in the U.S. state of Virginia.
[1][2] The Hopewell Subdivision was developed in the early 1900's by the Seaboard Air Line Railroad.
[3][4] The Hopewell Subdivision's current swing bridge over the Appomattox River was built in 1924.
In 1980, the Seaboard Coast Line's parent company merged with the Chessie System, creating the CSX Corporation.
The Hopewell Subdivision's swing bridge over the Appomattox River has been remotely operated since 2017.
