Ashland

Tucked between Richmond and the South Anna River in central Virginia, Ashland is a place whose character is shaped by the railroad line running through its center. Tracks divide its compact downtown, where passenger trains still stop at Ashland station and businesses face the rails rather than turning away from them. Randolph-Macon College, a private liberal-arts college founded in 1830, moved here in 1868 and gives the town a campus presence among mature streets and older houses. The annual Ashland Strawberry Faire, held downtown, is a local tradition that draws the community into the center.
