Railroad Facilities
   The Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac railroad company are transferring their engines and cars to the {Virginia} Central road, preparatory to working their trains between the Hanover Junction and Fredericksburg. The freight and passengers coming from or going to points on that road, will be carried in the cars of the former, and between the Junction and Richmond they will be transported by the Central company. This arrangement will continue in force until the bridge over the South Anna river, on the Fredericksburg road, now being built, is completed, when that company will resume its legitimate business. The above arrangement will be in operation in four or five days, and we will be in direct railroad communication with Fredericksburg .
