Public notice of dispute over railroad track expansion
Long resident claims Virginia Beach Railroad attempts to widen its track along Park avenue Brambleton Ward threatening his store sidewalk and property. He alleges coercive measures including blocking grocery orders and boycotting his business after he resisted the plan. He cites a letter from B P Holland, railroad superintendent, demanding removal of posts and confirming plan to extend standard gauge rails. The fight centers on property rights and safety concerns with potential fire and life risks.
