Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac Railroad Historical Society History of the R. F. & P. Railroad – October 17, 2024
The Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac (RF&P) Railroad linked the North with the South by providing rail services between Washington D.C. and Richmond from 1834 to 1991. The railroad has shaped Fredericksburg from rail lines being used by both the Union and Confederate armies to railroad improvements and the contraction of the railroad bridge in the 1920’s. Representatives from RF&P Railroad Historical Society will speak about this extensive history.
Evening with an Expert will take place at the FAM (907 Princess Anne St), from 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm and will conclude with a light reception with the speaker. Lecture tickets are $20 for non-members and $10 for members. Visit
