The Town of Crewe, Virginia was planned and built by the Norfolk & Western Railroad in 1888 to support operations at the halfway point between Roanoke and Norfolk, Virginia. It was named after another railroad town, Crewe, England. A headquarters building was constructed in the 1930s and donated to the Town of Crewe in 2003. https://www.vlgma.org/news/sept-2021-community-conversations. |
