Triple Crossing in Richmond, Virginia - Only Place in America where 3 Railroads Cross at same spot

Image
While in Richmond, Virginia this past weekend I visited the Triple Crossing which is the only place in America where three different railroads cross over one another at the same spot. I first learned about it from old postcards, but it has been a popular attraction for train enthusiasts for over 100 years. Triple Crossing began back in 1853, was an important rail line during the unCivil War, and is still in use today. I included photo op photos and old postcards showing 3 trains passing at the same time along with photos I just took.
