Hunton, VA is located between Ashland, VA and Richmond, VA on CSX's RF&P SD at milepost CFP 9.3.

The CSX RF&P SD is a busy north and south line hosting more than 50 trains a day with more than 24 CSX freight trains and 18 Amtrak passenger trains including CSX's "Tropicana Juice" train (Q740/741) and Amtrak's Auto Train (PO52/53).

The BBRR is a shortline railroad running locals east and west with a lease on CSX's former C&O Piedmont SD. CSX also uses the line for returning empties to Clifton Forge, VA that initially came east across the former C&O mainline, James River and Rivanna SDs, out of WV and KY to Newport News, VA and those that turned south out of Richmond on the former ACL A-Line now the CSX North End SD.

Radio communications include trains arriving and departing CSX's Richmond's ACCA and Fulton Yards and the Buckingham Branch Railroad operations from AM Junction in downtown Richmond to west of Doswell, VA.

BBRR traffic consists of the Doswell yard operations, BBRR locals (Z628/Z629), CSX's Martin Marietta's Aggregate Verdon, VA ballast trains (Q766/Q767) and empty, westbound hopper (E) and grain (G) trains coming off of CSX's North End, Bellwood, Peninsula (Fulton Yard) and RF&P SDs.

The BBRR crosses the CSX RF&P SD at the CSX controlled diamond in Doswell, VA and the BBRR operates with track warrants issued by the BBCC (Buckingham Branch Control Center). This feed compliments the Chester, VA feed (see below) and the two feeds combined provide full Richmond, VA scanner coverage.
