Norfolk and Virginia Beach railroad upgrades advance to May
The Norfolk Virginia Beach and Southern Railroad pushes extensive improvements. Track widening and trestle work proceed with 15,000 new rails ordered from Brunswick. A new two story depot in Princess Anne style is planned on Park and Claiborne avenues, with bids open this week. Ten passenger cars and several other cars ordered, four locomotives leased, and old buildings to be sold or repurposed. A Mahone's Lake trestle may become part of a new boardwalk, while beach season promises strong hotel occupancy and a Brambleton welcome for visitors.
