The Virginia Railway Express (VRE) Operations Board has authorized a comprehensive painting and surface restoration project for the Woodbridge Station, aiming to enhance both the facility’s longevity and the passenger experience.
The train that derailed on Saturday, July 20, 2024, at Cobblestone Square, an apartment complex in Fredericksburg, had been experiencing mechanical issues, so the train was parked at the city’s Virginia Railway Express (commuter rail) station before moving to its final destination in Richmond.
Mayor Kerry P. Devine addressed the recent train derailment behind Fredericksburg’s Cobblestone Square apartment complex, expressing concern for the community’s safety.
