This week's Rail Fan Friday goes to @lord_fife 📸
If you've been sitting on a great Amtrak Virginia photo thinking "nah, it's probably not good enough" now is the time to tag us! If you tag @amtrakvirginia in your train photo, you could be the next Rail Fan Friday feature.
It's National Bike Month, and we need to talk about your best commuter upgrade. 🚲🚆 Amtrak Virginia lets you bring your bike on board for a small fee! Instead of driving to the trailhead, you can *train* to the trailhead. Your legs will thank you later (or yell at you, depending on the trail).
Speaking of trails! Mark your calendar: Roanoke is hosting the USA Cycling Endurance Mountain Bike National Championship in July 2026. 🏆⛰️
Book a seat to Roanoke on Amtrak Virginia. Show up. Shred. Repeat. 🔗 Bike reservation info in our bio.
She raised you, drove you everywhere, and still remembered to pack snacks. 🚂💐
This Mother's Day, skip the brunch reservation stress and treat her to something she'll actually talk about: a train trip through Virginia. Book her a seat, hand her a coffee, and watch her exhale.
👉 Check out our giftcards at Amtrak.com/virginia and tag a mom who deserves a real getaway. ⬇️

To every veteran and active duty service member, thank you for your service. Not just this month. Always.
Amtrak offers a 10% discount for active military personnel and veterans, because getting you home (or anywhere else you want to go) should be a little easier.
Virginia's got a lot worth exploring, and you've more than earned the window seat. 👉 Link in bio to learn more about military travel discounts. Tag a vet or service member who deserves to know about this. 💙
Therapist: How does boarding the train make you feel? Us: 😌🚆✨ Big thanks to @lord_fife for this week's #RailFanFriday shot that we are frankly living for.
Drop your best Amtrak Virginia shots in the comments and tag @amtrakva for your photo could be our next feature!
From beach getaways to mountain escapes, the train makes it easy to explore the state with relaxing car-free travel. 🚆
Unlock your summer with Amtrak Virginia ☀️
We’re making big progress on the Long Bridge Project!
Crews are currently driving piles in the river as part of the ongoing test pile program. Next up is something pretty interesting: statnamic testing. The first of two days this testing are scheduled to occur Friday, May 1 and Thursday, May 7.
What is a statnamic test? It’s a specialized test that applies a powerful downward force onto a pile; to confirm it meets design requirements. It’s quick and effective, but you might hear a loud “boom” when it happens.
This is all a part of making sure the foundation is strong, safe, and built to last.
While everyone else is sitting on I-95, we're out here living our best life at full speed and @1zacharyweiss had the receipts to prove it. This is your #RailFanFriday reminder that you could be on this train right now.
Drop your favorite shots of us in motion and tag @amtrakva for the chance to be featured. We'll do the rest. 🎟️
