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:

    “I would rather not see such winds subside, which carry your slow ship away, although they leave me, cast down, on an empty shore, often, with clenched hand, calling you cruel.”
    —Propertius Sextus (c. 50–16 B.C.)

    “I’ve stayed in the front yard all my life.
    I want a peek at the back
    Where it’s rough and untended and hungry weed grows.
    A girl gets sick of a rose.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
