Natural Bridge Station

Natural Bridge Station is a couple of miles from Natural Bridge Park, and the old part of town is really isolated from the main roads. I drove up hoping to find a station structure still standing, but instead was pleasantly surprised by what really was there.

The N&W Railway (now NS) James River Bridge was built in 1915, and some of the town structures look to be much older than that. Such a neat little place tucked out of sight.

I don’t have too much stuff. Now this guy, well, he’s got just enough.

The rest of town is an antique too.

Thanks, all. I've been hearing more coyotes lately, Kalle.

Nice series; without that camper, you'd be hard pressed to spot when the pictures were taken.
