This station’s name came from the nearby North Anna River, which flowed through parts of Orange, Louisa, Spotsylvania, and Hanover Counties.
In Hanover, it joins the South Anna River to form the Pamunkey River. Both rivers were named in honor of Queen Anne. There was a passenger shed along
the tracks here until 1964, but I know of no other C&O facilities. Today, there’s nothing there but a grade crossing.

This passenger shelter was moved from its location in November, 1964. It is
now in use as a storage shed on a nearby farm. (2002 photo)

This map was prepared from U.S.G.S. topological maps, C&O track charts dated 1963, C&O Side
Track Records dated 1937, a copy of the Side Track Records updated through the 1990’s, and
C&O Valuation maps, also updated through the 1990’s.
