A fascinating piece of Virginia railroad and transatlantic transportation history, this vintage Heritage Plaques wall display reproduces an Alexandria, Loudoun & Hampshire Railroad timetable and advertisement dated May 21, 1860. The historic notice details daily rail service between Alexandria and Winchester, Virginia, with stops including Falls Church, Vienna, Leesburg, Hamilton, Purcellville, and other Northern Virginia communities, alongside fares and schedules. Below is an advertisement for the Vanderbilt European Line, promoting United States Mail steamship service between New York, Southampton, and Le Havre aboard the Vanderbilt and Illinois. The reproduction is mounted on a solid wood plaque with a brass-tone hanging ring, while the reverse bears the Heritage Plaques mark from Falls Church, Virginia. Produced as a later historical reproduction, it makes an excellent display for a railroad, Virginia history, maritime, or transportation collection. Good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and display.
Dimensions: 12” x 7”
