During the second half of Feb, I will be furloughed for two weeks and I plan to go visit some of my family in Richmond, VA for that time period. I plan on swinging by the Richmond train station in the downtown, but are there any railroad museums and such?

We're working on opening the Richmond Railway Museum in the old Southern Railway Station on Hull St, but that probably won't be open yet. We do have a restoration yard just to the southwest of town. Photos and information about all of this and Richmond Railroad hisstory can be found at www.odcnrhs.org
