The Downtown Ashland Association has created the Mid-Atlantic Railroad Park Community Committee (“MARPC Committee”) to gauge the level of interest in the community to develop a privately funded and operated railroad park that would feature exhibits of railroad equipment with educational signage. To learn more and provide input the MARPC Committee is hosting two public input sessions at the Ashland Branch Library at 7:00 PM: Thursday, January 23, and Thursday, March 5. Contact Tom Wulf (tom.wulf@yahoo.com) or Maggie Longest (director@ashlandvirginia.com) for more information.
