Ship Yard

Ship Yard is a rail yard on the Richmond District in Richmond, Virginia. It is just east of Triple Crossing. Ship Yard is not often used for putting together trains, but is more for storing empty cars, especially boxcars.

Famous quotes containing the words ship and/or yard:

    “The world’s a ship on its voyage out, and not a voyage complete; and the pulpit is its prow.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “He slipped his hand and ran away!
    He hadn’t gone a yard when—Bang!
    With open jaws, a lion sprang,
    And hungrily began to eat
    The boy: beginning at his feet.”
    —Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)
