Westham Station

Westham Station

Westham Station in Henrico County, Virginia, was originally located at Westham, Virginia on the Richmond and Allegheny Railroad (R&A), which was laid along the towpath of the James River and Kanawha Canal in the 1880s. The R&A railroad was acquired by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway (C&O) in the 1890s. Nearby, the Westham Bridge was built across the James River in 1911.

C&O's Westham Station was relocated to a Richmond city park in 1961.
