USPS shuts Orange Co site, uneasy with racist past

One Virginia post office located in a historic train depot has abruptly suspended its services without informing the community.

Montpelier Station Post Office has served orange county for the past 110 years since its opening in 1912.

Before it was a post office, it operated as a train station after William duPont built the Depot in 1910. This was a regular stop on the existing Southern Railway line. Initially, the stop only served the duPont family and other residents of Montpelier but quickly became a frequent stop for the community.

Community members at Montpelier say they were not notified and received little information from their former Postmaster.

“He simply said that it was a decision that was coming out of Richmond, and he did not provide us any other information,” said Christy Moriarty, Director of Communications. She continued to say, “We’ve tried to reach out to them, they have not responded. We’d really like to sit down and have a conversation with them.”

Screw you, DeJoy. Quit and go home. We know it was YOU and not "racist past".
