History
The Fredericksburg station was originally built in 1910 by the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad, as a replacement for an older ground level station house.[1] The RF&P arrived in Fredericksburg as far back as January 1837. A former Virginia Central Railway Depot can be found on adjacent tracks two blocks to the west on the southwest corner of Lafayette Boulevard and Charles Street.[2] Шаблон:Citation needed[3]
The RF&P's passenger service was taken over by Amtrak in 1971. and commuter service was re-introduced by Virginia Railway Express in 1992 when the station became the southern terminus of the Fredericksburg Line. Since 1997, the station house was occupied by Claiborne's restaurant,[4] until it was replaced in 2010 by the Bavarian Chef Restaurant.[5] The station underwent a major restoration project between 2010 and 2011.[6]
The line was extended to a new terminus at Spotsylvania station in November 2015 with the hopes of easing the parking crunch at Fredericksburg.[7]
In June 2017, the VRE board approved a $431,000 to repair the western sections of platform, with plans to add an additional stair tower. Further in the future, plans for the Southeast High Speed Rail Corridor call for a third track and an expanded station slightly to the east.[6] Шаблон:Clear left
