VRE to Open New Spotsylvania VRE Station
For Release: October 26, 2015 Contacts: Bryan L. Jungwirth, Director of Public Affairs & Government Relations Virginia Railway Express [email protected] (703) 838-5416 office (571) 238-9084 cell Kathryn A. Smith, Public Information Officer Spotsylvania County Government [email protected] 540-507-7005 office 540-455-8988 cell VRE to Open New Spotsylvania VRE Station Spotsylvania County and Alexandria, VA. – The Virginia Railway Express (VRE) will commence VRE commuter rail service from the new Spotsylvania Station on Monday, November 16, 2015. VRE built the new station and platform while Spotsylvania County built the 1,500-space parking lot for commuters. Spotsylvania County and VRE will host a ribbon cutting ceremony at 10 a.m. that morning. Spotsylvania Station, located southwest of US 17 and Crossroads Parkway, will become the southern terminus for VRE train service on the Fredericksburg Line and represents the first extension of VRE commuter rail service since it began operations in 1992. The station consists of the 1,500 space parking lot, a waiting area with bathroom facilities, and a 700-foot platform with canopy. “We’ve been long anticipating the completion of the Spotsylvania Station. It will be a tremendous amenity for the citizens and businesses of Spotsylvania County and points south,” said Gary Skinner, Spotsylvania County Supervisor and VRE Operations Board Vice-Chairman, who represents the County’s Lee Hill District. Doug Allen, Chief Executive Officer of VRE, said, “The new Spotsylvania Station is a great addition to our Fredericksburg Line service. The Station is well-designed, conveniently located and has plenty of parking.” This has been a joint effort with several stakeholders working in concert towards a successful overall project. -

Cardinal ROUTE GUIDE
CARDINAL ROUTE GUIDE CHICAgo • INDIANAPOLIS • CINCINNATI • WASHINgtoN, DC • NEW YORK We hope you enjoy reading this guide and learning about points of interest along our route. It is written starting from the northeastern terminus of the train in New York and proceeds to points southwest and west, ending in Chicago. If you boarded in Chicago, just read the guide in reverse, remembering to look in the opposite direction if referenced. AMTRAK STATIONS are shown in all capital letters, as opposed to upper and lower case for towns and geographical areas through which the train travels but does not stop. The Amtrak System Timetable or the Cardinal panel card should be consulted for actual station times. While all service presented in this guide was accurate at the time of publication, routes and services are subject to change. Please contact Amtrak at 1-800-USA-RAIL, visit Amtrak.com, or call your travel agent for the most current information. Between the front door of America’s Eastern Seaboard, Amtrak’s famous Northeast Corridor, and the equally well- known delights of the Windy City, Chicago, lies the gateway to the American South and the unparalleled wonders of the journey westward through America’s mid-Atlantic and southeastern heartlands. From twinkling Northeast cityscapes to famous Civil War battlefields; from the Blue Ridge Mountain chain and the Shenandoah Valley to West Virginia’s wild and wonderful whitewater rivers; from the fabulous window on geologic history at the New River Gorge to the Kanawha River’s thunder into a 1,300-ft. canyon below; from quiet coal mining towns to the beautifully illuminated nighttime skyline of Charleston, the capital city, and on to the great plains and Chicago – the Cardinal takes you on an unforgettable journey through history and adventure. -
