History

Eventually, the train too stopped taking passengers, leaving Scottsville a sleepy country town on a coal line. It is part of the Charlottesville, Virginia Charlottesville metropolitan area Statistical Area.

According to [http://www.scottsville.org/ Scottsville's website], the town "served as Virginia's westernmost center of government and commerce during the 1700s, when rivers were the primary means of travel in the new American wilderness." During the late eighteenth and the nineteenth century attempts were made to improve navigability along the James, as well as other central Virginian rivers. In fact, thanks to a wagon road connecting Staunton, Virginia to Scottsville, all of the agricultural wealth of the Shenandoah Valley poured into town en route to Richmond and the sea, thereby making Scottsville the largest grain market in the state. Then the train came, the tracks being laid directly on the towpath of the old canal, a monument to its demise. Scottsville is a town in Albemarle County, Virginia and Fluvanna County, Virginia counties in the US state of Virginia.
