I went out to take pictures down by the James river in RVA the other day and came upon a trail that ran under this old train trestle. Apparently half the trail was a giant sewage pipe that ran quite a ways under the trestle. About half the pipe length was without rail and I thought why the fuck not. End up going 40 feet down the pipe and realize I made a bad decision, fuckit.jpg Go down the pipe 10feet and almost slipped cause I got my shoes wet at the beginning. Realized that the water was actually higher and faster than it looked before, realized that if I fell in I'd be trapped under a pillar or the pipe. Pipe merged with catwalk section after about 100meters. Now I want to do more exploring.
>> TLDR almost falling in the James on an old river pipe has inspired me to check out the abandoned hydro electric plant nearby.Anybody in RVA want to be my urb-ex buddy for the hydro electric plant?
