Norfolk—Rocky Mount Line
The Atlantic Coast Line Railroad's Norfolk—Rocky Mount Line (B Line) was one of the company's secondary main lines running from the company's main line in Rocky Mount, North Carolina northeast to a point just outside of Norfolk, Virginia. Despite its name, it terminated at Pinners Point in Portsmouth, Virginia (just across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk). Bus and ferry service connected passengers to Norfolk.
