Viewing Album:  The Last Hurrah - Basketball and Trains
 
By:Dave Crawford
Dates:3/8/2025 - 3/8/2025
Album Info:My brother and I enjoyed 3 days of basketball and railfanning during the ACC Women's Basketball Tournament in Greensboro, NC and on the way home. On day 4 we decided to check out action in the Waynesboro and Staunton Area. We chased an empty grain hoppers train from Waynesboro to Staunton and caught it in the Brand area (known to locals and Brand's Flat. The train stopped in Brand while waiting for a Virginia Scenic Railway train to clear the Staunton Station. We continued after Brand to the Staunton Station and The Shenandoah Valley Railroad Yard. Lastly, this album contains a surprise visit by Spiderman.
