Caption:
Warrenton Junction | Additional Description: Roughly two miles southwest of the marker is Warrenton Junction, where a spur line Warrenton joined the Orange and Alexandria Railroad. The spur line can be seen leaving the main line and running to the right of the photo. Mosby attempted to cut the lines in May 1863, unsuccessfully. The action here occurred at the same time the armies were fully engaged in the Battle of Chancellorsville.
