A nano container placed at a historic marker at the beginning of the Heritage Tobacco Trail.
La Crosse became the junction of the Atlantic and Danville Railway and the Scaboard Air Line Railway in 1900. Surveyed as early as 1748, the area was known as Piney Pond by 1767, for a body of water that no longer exists. When a post office was established here in 1890, the region was known as La Crosse. The Virginia General Assembly incorporated the town of La Crosse on February 15, 1901. Around the tracks, a business district, which included two depots, a bank, and several stores then prospered. The rail tracks were removed by 1990.
There is a caboose at the beginning of the Heriage Tobacco Trail where your search will begin!
The initial segment of the Trail was a four-mile section connecting La Crosse and Brodnax.
The Heritage Tobacco Trail, which will primarily utilize abandoned railroad corridors, will be limited to non-motorized traffic and will be for multiple user groups--pedestrians, hikers, bicyclists, and horseback riders--with portions accessible to those with mobility limitations.
Approximately 100 miles of abandoned railroad corridor, plus easements and connecting bike routes along county roadways, will be employed in the construction of the Tobacco Heritage Trail through Brunswick, Halifax, and Mecklenburg counties.
