Ideas for RR page[edit]

To the author - looking good. I saw your comment for Slambo. I added an info box and some categories. A few extra ideas - a References section listing your bibliography books or web source of info. Also, if you have the HQ location and a RR logo, add it to the Info box. I'll see if I can find a logo somewhere. Rhallanger 17:40, 24 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Information is sparse. Apparently the headquarters were in Richmond, and it operated independently from 1880 to 1890 when it was purchased by the C&O. One would suspect that was the intention all along, which may explain why we do not seem to have any major office/station. It appears to have used Byrd St. at Richmond.
