Steve, he smiled when he said to his black and dusty fireman, "Throw me in a little more coal, and as soon as we cross this White Oak Mountain you can watch my driver roll." It was mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville, the line on a 3-mile grade. It were on that hill where he lost his air brakes. You can see what a jump he made Steve come down that hill makin' 90 miles an hour, his whistle began to scream. Steve was found in the wreck with his hand upon the throttle and scalded to death by the steam Steve, he had a little wife and also two children, who were lyin' at home in bed.

This is a great City underrated City located kind of in the middle of nowhere close to the Virginia Carolina border. It has a bloody history in the struggle for racial equality, and a tiny little downtown that is like a fun-sized happy meal of a downtown. It's super cute. There's not a lot of good stuff to eat, but there are a few hidden homestyle gems. This part of Virginia honestly has much more in common with West Virginia than it does Northern Virginia.

They claimed they changed their refund policy on the exact same day we unenrolled, yet they have repeatedly refused to provide documentation of this supposed policy change.
