Danville Museum - Last Capital of the Confederacy
The week prior to Gen. Robert E. Lees surrender at Appomattox, the Confederate government moved from Richmond to Danville, Virginia. Members of the government took up residence in various homes around town. The Sutherlin Mansion -- today the Danville Museum of Fine Arts and History -- became the temporary residence of President Jefferson Davis. There, he composed his final proclamation to the Confederacy, held one of the last official cabinet meetings, and planned to continue the fight. Hear the exciting story of the last desperate days of the dying Confederate government.

Danville, Virginia, stifles the skeptics
saveourtowns.outreach.vt.edu Derided as a ghost town, Danville has stats to prove it's a city making a strong comeback. Don't miss seeing the inside of a refurbished factory building downtown! Also: Are railroads underutilized as a PR tool? Marion makes much of its murals -- and more.

The Wreck of the Old 97
It was a still September morning in 1903, punctuated only by the occasional ringing of church bells and the chatter among citizens of Danville as they strolled home from their Sunday worship services. Like normal, the Southern Railway train, known as the Fast Mail, was heading into Danville from Monroe, Virginia, en route to Spencer, North Carolina. Only, on this particular Sunday, it was running faster than usual. Much faster than usual. As it reached the Stillhouse Trestle near Danvilles Highway 58, it sailed off the tracks, plummeting down an incline and collapsing into a dusty, metal-clanging heap as people from all across town rushed in to help dig for survivors. The Wreck of the Old 97 story was quickly made famous by a top-selling country tune. Today, local historian Lawrence McFall details the events that led up to one of the most famous train wrecks in history.
