Take Virginian Railway history to the tee with golf balls inspired by the VGN. From its 1907 formation through its 1959 merger into Norfolk and Western, the Virginian built a reputation far beyond its size. The railroad carried coal from the mountains of West Virginia to Hampton Roads, operated a notable electrified section from Mullens to Roanoke, and became the Richest Little Railroad in the World. A memorable choice for railfans, golfers, collectors, tournaments, and Virginia or West Virginia heritage gatherings.
The Virginian Railway, reporting mark VGN, was a Class I railroad created to move high-quality “smokeless” bituminous coal from southern West Virginia to Hampton Roads. Civil engineer and coal manager William Nelson Page and financier Henry Huttleston Rogers developed its predecessor lines: the Deepwater Railway, formed in West Virginia in 1898, and Virginia’s Tidewater Railway, formed in 1904. Their projects were combined as the Virginian Railway Company on March 8, 1907, with Page as its first president on April 15. The route joined the coalfields to a new pier at Sewell’s Point near Norfolk, Virginia. Its last spike was driven near Glen Lyn on January 29, 1909, and the completed line was celebrated in Norfolk that April. Known as the “Richest Little Railroad in the World,” VGN used steam, electric, and diesel power; a 134-mile electrified mountain section between Mullens, West Virginia, and Roanoke, Virginia, was completed in 1925. VGN merged into the Norfolk and Western Railway in 1959. Major portions of its route later remained in use under Norfolk Southern Railway.
