America’s Finest Era PRESERVED ON FOUR WHEELS C AMELOT CL ASSIC C ARS

arrenton is not unlike many small towns in that her best features are modestly hidden within the people walking down Main Street. Around every corner, interesting folks with fascinating backgrounds, hopeful futures, crazy inventions, ambitious adventures, go about their daily lives with little celebrity.

Matthew Innocenzi is one of those lesserknown gems with a passion for restoration and classic cars. His hobby and collection, known as Camelot Classic Cars, restores and provides for-hire vintage cars from his private collection for weddings, anniversaries and promotional events.

As it would happen getting started was a passing thought from his now wife, Kelly.

Innocenzi was preparing for his own wedding in 2002 when he purchased a 1958 Cadillac Sedan Deville to restore for their big day.

“When I was dating Kelly, I was restoring the Oldsmobile, and she would help me,” Innocenzi explained. “She would go to junk yards with me, buff trim and put things back together on it. When we were at the junk yard she said to me ‘I would love a car with big fins.’”

Some time later, after finishing the Oldsmobile’s restoration, Innocenzi happened upon a treasure glinting through the trees on an afternoon errand. The worn fins of a black Cadillac winked at him over the hoods of the crowded suburban parking lot of a landscape nursery center. He located its owner and made a sale with the idea that car would be a great new restoration project for the couple.

“The car was in terrible shape,” Innocenzi recalls. “I worked on that car night and day for two years for it to be used in our wedding.”

Within the two year period the car was stripped to bare metal to address any dents, J uly 2014

dings or rust. The body was primed with an epoxy primer and painted in the base coat/clear system using the DuPont Chromabase in the original Tuxedo Black color. The Deville was a matching numbers car, meaning the majority of the cars major components were still original. With that in mind, Innocenzi meticulously restored the antique vehicle to museum quality standards. Starting with the 365 cubic inch V8 with 310 horsepower engine, every inch of the car was renewed to the beauty of the day it rolled off the assembly line; including historically accurate black calcutta cloth with ivory surrounds on the Deville’s refreshed upholstery.

The car was officially ready, and by this time, Matt was more than ready to marry Kelly.

“Funny story about that car: a week before the wedding the transmission went on it,” he laughed.

“Now everything has been serviced or addressed on it and it has performed flawlessly at other weddings; it just never made it to ours. I tell everybody, if anything is going to fail at a wedding, let it be the car.”

Since 1992, Innocenzi has acquired a small fleet of classic General Motors cars, featuring popular Chevrolets and Cadillacs. The fleet roster fully represents each Mid-Century era mark of the General Motors Company including Chevrolet, Pontiac, Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile and GMC. His line-up includes a 1946 Chevrolet Fleetmaster coupe in tuxedo black with tan pin-striping cloth interior, a 1958 Cadillac Sedan Deville in tuxedo black with ivory and black calcutta cloth interior, a 1962 Cadillac Fleetwood in Avalon Blue Metallic with blue French rolled pleated interior, a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro in Matador Red with black vinyl interior, a 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu in Fire Engine Red with black vinyl interior, and a 1968 Oldsmobile Delta 88 in Maroon Metallic with black vinyl interior.

Innocenzi’s appreciation for classic cars came from his father who was a loyal GM enthusiast. Innocenzi first learned to work on the cars in his dad’s shop, and his fascination with the automaker never left.

8

Above Innocenzi holds artifacts that he finds in the cars he restores. In his hands are cosmetic items, a nail file, high school parking sticker, small toys and coins.

“He [Innocenzi Senior] would bring me to car shows and help me identify cars,” he remembered.

“Like, “that’s a ‘57 Chevy, that’s a ‘64 Mustang…” and with that, it helped create my passion today.”

Considering many classic cars that are around today have been updated to include modern conveniences like larger engines, sound systems and more, Innocenzi’s work is quite unusual. He prefers to restore his cars back to the original factory standards and appearance.

“I do them original. I make all of my cars the way they look when they come off of the assembly line,” He stressed. “To me, numbers matching is crucial because that is going to make the restoration complete and separates my work and my discipline a little bit different from the rest.”

He mentioned that when he purchases each car and begins to strip them down that he keeps all of the artifacts that have been long forgotten: old receipts, lipstick tubes, children’s toys, etc. All of these small trinkets and papers help tell the life story of each vehicle.

In addition to his exhaustive restoration efforts, Innocenzi works to track the history of the car back to the original owner. A fitting example of this provenance: the Cadillac he purchased for his own nuptials was originally a wedding gift from father to son in May of 1958.

Cars have been known to drive memories for people, which is why Innocenzi does his best to reconnect the past owners with their cars. He has been successful on two occasions, driving to New Jersey to share the ‘58 Cadillac with its previous owner; a ninety year old woman who broke into tears when she saw the renewed condition of her once beloved chariot.

10

Innocenzi has also had the unique experience of sharing the documented restoration of the 1962 Cadillac with its original owner, Dr. Cyrus Partington of Colorado Springs CO, for whom the car held many poignant memories including his wife’s learning of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy over the car’s AM radio. It’s links like these to America’s past that drive Innocenzi’s passion for his work.

That passion and attention to detail has caught the eye of film studios. “I get hired for Hollywood movies, too,” he mentioned. “It started in 2006, I received a newsletter from a local car club that I belong to with a call for cars in movies in the area. I

was in touch with the agency, and they used the 1958 Oldsmobile in a movie filmed in Washington D.C. called Talk to Me.” The movie chronicled the story of Washington D.C. radio personality and community activist Ralph “Petey” Greene, and many scenes were shot with Innocenzi’s cars at historic DC landmarks.

“It’s a fever that I have,” he explained. “When I’m done with one car I want to do another car. These feelings overwhelmed me until it became a collection - almost like a hoarder. I put all of my energy into these cars and when they are done I really don’t want to get rid of them, I just get another one and the chain continues.”

Fauquier Health Fauquier Health Rehabilitation & Nursing Center Again Receives Prestigious Accreditation easy for residents to see what options are available and when.”

Communication extends to patients’ families as well. Family members are welcome anytime, and are encouraged to talk to staff members about concerns or specific needs their loved ones may have.

The CARF survey talked with all the stakeholders at FHRNC and found that communication among them – patients, family, staff – was excellent.

FHRNC resident Vivian Draper waters the plants in the wheelchair accessible garden.

Residents enjoy the chance to get some sunshine and help tend the flora.

Fauquier Health Rehabilitation & Nursing Center has been granted a three-year accreditation in both Inpatient Rehabilitation and PersonCentered Long Term Care, by CARF, the international accrediting body (Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities). FHRNC is the only skilled nursing facility in Virginia with an Inpatient Rehabilitation accreditation. FHRNC is one of only two facilities in the nation holding both accreditations. The recognition is actually a reaccreditation; FHRNC has been accredited continuously since 2008.

A team of three surveyors spent several days at FHRNC in March, completing a comprehensive survey on patient care and medical outcomes. Dr. Julie Ross, director of Inpatient Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, said that the visitors were especially impressed with two aspects of patient care at FHRNC: communication and quality.

“The surveyors were amazed at how many recreational and educational choices we provide for residents – everything from Bingo (always popular) to classes, to special events, like a Senior Prom or a Pet Expo. We have big boards in several different areas that make it 12

Dr. Ross said, “To earn the patientcentered care accreditation, the surveyors want to be sure that the longterm care facility is seen – by staff and residents alike – as the residents’ home.

A lot of emphasis is placed on dignity.

At FHRNC, residents have the same freedoms they would have in their own homes. They can wake up, eat, sleep and participate in activities when they like.

We don’t impose our schedules on them.”

Communication intersects with quality when it comes to patient care.

Dedicated to preventing problems like medication interactions, falls and pressure ulcers that can be common in long-term care facilities, Dr. Ross said that the facility uses patient care quality metrics on a daily basis to drive the best care.

On the short-term rehabilitation end, the staff focuses on good communication to make sure patients are healing as quickly as they are able. Dr. Ross said, “We place a strong emphasis on providing a plan of care, right from the beginning of a patient’s time with us.

We work to make sure that the discharge information and transition to home care is as complete as possible. We want to make sure that when the person is ready to leave our care, that they have the means to continue improving at home.

That’s our commitment to our patients – get better, and get home.”

Dr. Ross notes that the CARF survey is voluntary and is above and beyond already stringent state and federal

regulations. “Applying for the CARF accreditation helps to us to maintain the highest standards. We want to be sure we are performing at a superior level. ” She added, “Our dedicated staff deserves special kudos for all the work they do every day to ensure our commitment to quality and improvement is clear, not only to surveyors, but to our residents, patients, their families, and this community.”

Inpatient Rehab Facility Helps Patients Heal The Fauquier Health Rehabilitation & Nursing Therapy Suite is the only comprehensive facility in the area; physical, occupational, speech and aqua therapy are all provided under one roof.

Recently renovated, the open floor plan provides easier access for patients, more choices for therapy activities and increased interaction between therapists and patients. A fully functioning kitchen, laundry and bath allow patients to practice skill of daily living with an occupational therapist. A dedicated speech therapy room has also been added.

And FHRNC’s unique warmwater therapeutic pool allows for a low-impact, low-gravity form of physical therapy that uses rehabilitation techniques while in the water.

The goal of physical therapy is to preserve, enhance or restore movement and physical function brought on by a disability, injury or disease. Therapeutic exercise, assistive devices, patient education and training are all used to help patients return to their highest functional level possible.

In addition, several Fauquier Health therapists have received expanded education, like advanced certification in brain injury therapy for patients with stroke and other brain injuries.

Creating the Perfect Setting for

SUMMER

ENTERTAINING

by Paola McDonald

more fun and much more appealing to you as host and to your guests.

Some homeowners become stressed if their home doesn’t look perfect for their guests. Some even avoid having guests because their home does not look like it belongs in the pages of a magazine. However, it is my opinion as a designer that a lived in home is much more warm and inviting to all who visit it. The first thing to consider when thinking about how your home functions for entertaining is that it doesn’t have to be perfect. Quite the opposite, homes with character, personality and a lived in feel are the homes that are the most appealing.

When thinking about entertaining, think about the type of entertaining that you do most. Are your gatherings large (would you like them to be) or intimate? Are they with close friends and relatives or do you host colleagues and associates? How you entertain is going to be a driving factor around much of your decisions for setting up your home to entertain. If you prefer small gatherings with close family and friends, you will likely want lots of seating around your main entertaining space. If you host large gatherings with colleagues, networking will be important. You will want to set up several small conversation areas and will want to create flow that allows your guests to move easily around the room. Take notice of how you prefer to entertain and how your guests typically interact, and then think about a floor plan that encourages that type of interaction.

Another important consideration for effective entertaining is of course how your home is laid out. If you have an open floor plan, creating flow will likely be easier for you then if your home is more traditional with separated, enclosed spaces. Inevitably most parties end up in the kitchen. There is something about a kitchen that always draws guests. This can be challenging if your kitchen is small or separated from the rest of your home. To encourage your guests to move around the home, consider setting up areas that could act as food and drink stations in other rooms like the living room and dining room. A console in the living room or buffet in the dining room can be the perfect bar or food station. Even the coffee table in your under-used living room can become the most appealing food station to your guests. Also consider setting the mood with candles and intimate lighting that encourages guests to want to enter those rooms. Again, small conversation areas with seating close enough for intimate conversation and sprinkled with inviting finger foods will encourage guests to congregate in other areas of your home.

Interior design has to be first and foremost functional.

Without this most basic yet most important element, our homes would be uncomfortable, unusable and a cause for stress and frustration. Entertaining our family and friends is one of the most important functions for our homes. With summer just around the corner many of us are already considering hosting small and large barbecues and gettogethers. However, very few of us really consider setting up our home for entertaining. There are several things that you can do to make hosting great parties and gatherings easier, 14

Generate conversation with “conversation pieces.”

Conversation pieces can be anything that guests might find appealing. It can be interesting books about the places that you’ve traveled that you’ve carefully placed like decoration on your accent tables or that fun art piece you picked up at last week’s flea market. Conversation pieces can be the creative photos you took of your children while they were playing in the yard, asymmetrically collaged on your family room wall or the distinctively unique chandelier you selected for over your dining room table. Conversation pieces help to show B road R un L ifestyle

Eye & Vision Care wishes you Happy 4th of July Summertime is always great fun with trips to the beach, ball games, gardening, family picnics and barbecues and, of course, spectacular fireworks on the 4th of July. Fireworks are beautiful but volatile, and they’re not worth putting your valuable eyesight or that of your children at risk.

• Use precaution to avoid any injury from fireworks.

• Never leave children unattended around fireworks.

• Never pick up or relight unexploded fireworks or duds.

• When you handle and light fireworks, wear safety goggles If an Eye Injury Does Occur: The first thing to do is to stay calm. Don’t rinse the eye or put any kind of ointment in it or rub it.

Tape a protective shield of some kind over it to prevent additional injury. (You can quickly make one from a paper or foam cup.) Don’t take aspirin, ibuprofen or any other product that could thin your blood or increase bleeding, unless prescribed by your doctor. Seek emergency medical attention immediately. Even if you think your injury is minor, it’s a wise idea to visit your eye doctor to make sure the eye heals properly and doesn’t create future vision problems.

Don’t let firework carelessness send you or your loved ones to the emergency room. Make safety your number one priority. Protect your vision this July 4th and for many more years to come!

you and your family’s personality, they encourage people to get to know you better and stimulate conversation that you feel comfortable having. Don’t be afraid to have fun when decorating your home. The most interesting homes are those with unexpected touches and whimsy, reflective of its owner’s personality and character.

It is extremely important to consider lighting for entertaining purposes. The easiest and quickest change you can make to your lighting plan is to add dimmer switches to all of the lights in your main entertaining areas. Both recessed lights and hanging lights, like pendants and chandeliers should be on dimmer switches so that you can adjust your lighting output for the type of entertaining you are doing.

Softened, dimmed lighting always help create a sense of intimacy and is much more flattering, if you are hosting a party for six or six hundred. If dimmers are not available, consider lighting your lamps instead of using overhead lights.

Lamp light is generally softer and more flattering than bright overhead lighting and can help you set the mood. Also

consider adding sparkle and warmth by lighting candles and distributing them throughout the areas of your home where you want guests to linger and roam.

One of the most important areas in your home for entertaining is your entryway. It is the first area of your home that guests see and therefore offers them their first impression of your home. It is important to set this area up to allow for an easy transition into your home. Every party is different and may require varying solutions for your entryway. Consider ahead of time how you are going to deal with coats, purses, hostess gifts and if you are a family that does not allow shoes in the house, for shoes as well. A fun, unique coat rack can be a simple way to address the coat and purse situation.

If you are entertaining large parties, consider emptying out the hall closet ahead of time in order to accommodate all of your guests things. Make sure to have plenty of hangers available as well. A few simple, unique baskets or fun colored bins can be the perfect way to corral shoes and purses as well. A couple of storage ottomans or a storage bench can help guests remove their shoes comfortably and act as storage for their belongings.

Don’t forget to dress the bathroom.

Add soft, color-coordinated towels and attractive bath accessories to your bathroom décor. Consider adding nice smelling lotions and soaps for an added touch of class. Also think about making available items that guests may need but may be too embarrassed to ask for. Attractive baskets or boxes, creatively labeled so that they know its okay to look can make your guests feel more at home. Great artwork, a nice mirror and upgraded lighting can make a simple bathroom feel sophisticated and elegant. Wallpaper or bold paint colors are also great touches for bathrooms. They allow you to make a big statement in a small space without too much commitment.

Flowers are a fun and festive way to decorate your home for the season.

They are great for setting a dramatic or elegant table, and they add life and personality to every room in the home.

Consider investing in several different types and sized vases. For smaller dinner parties you can group them to add drama to your table setting and for larger events you can distribute them throughout the home. Select your flowers based on the season or type of party you are hosting and change them up every time you host. Get creative with your arrangements and don’t be afraid to have fun. Consider giving each of your guests a flower as a party favor. This will allow them to enjoy the beauty of the flowers you’ve selected and to remember what a wonderful evening they had.

The most important thing that you can do as a party host is to have fun. Hosting a get together should be a pleasurable experience for your guests and for you. Prepare ahead of time so that you can enjoy yourself, your guests and your home. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Glasses may break and wine may spill. That’s all part of the fun. With these simple tips and some careful planning your next event can become the party of the year. Enjoy your summer of entertaining!

History

Following the victory at the First Battle of Manassas, Confederates were in control of the region as far north as Centreville, where they had their winter quarters. At Manassas Junction, they made improvements to the railyard, including building a turntable.

Due to the impassable roads, in late 1861 Confederate engineers built the world’s first military railroad – a six-mile rail line linking Centreville with the supply depot at Manassas Junction. It remained in use until the Confederates withdrew in March 1862, leaving the facilities at Manassas Junction in ruins.

Confederate soldiers under Gen. T. J. Jackson boarded trains at Piedmont Station (Delaplane), which took them down the MGRR tracks to Manassas. They arrived in time to secure victory at the First Battle of Manassas.

The Brief Life of the Manassas Gap Railroad Part 2: After figuring prominently in the Civil War, the MGRR is destroyed

Part 1, published in June 2014, outlined the beginning of railroading in Virginia, and the construction of the MGRR from Manassas Junction, which ran through Gainesville and Haymarket to the Shenandoah Valley. he strategic value of a rail line T in an area of active fighting was demonstrated in the early months of

the Civil War. In the build-up to the First Battle of Manassas in July 1861, troops under Confederate Gen. P.G. T. Beauregard and Union Gen. Irvin McDowell fought over control of Manassas Junction.

As battle lines were being drawn, Gen. T. J. Jackson’s infantrymen, who had been in the Shenandoah Valley,

marched to Piedmont Station, and boarded trains there that carried them over the MGRR tracks to Manassas, joining the battle on July 19, 1861.

“It took several trips to collect all the men marching from the Shenandoah Valley to the battlefield.

Gen. Johnston became impatient at the time it took to come and go, not fully grasping that the exhausted trainmen occasionally had to sleep a few hours,” wrote D’Anne Evans and John K. Gott in Train Whistles and Hunting Horns (1993). “But the fresh troops arrived just in time to change the tide and win this huge battle, which until then had been going against the South.”

With the Confederate forces south of the Rappahannock, Union troops moved into the area in force. On May 5, 1862, 1,400 troops under Col. John W. Geary marched in from Loudoun County, and occupied the 25-mile MGRR corridor from The Plains to Manassas Gap. Ten days later, Geary’s widely spaced troops were attacked by Confederate cavalrymen under Col. Thomas T. Munford, who raided a supply train about a mile from Linden, and took 15 prisoners. By May 26, Geary withdrew east to Broad Run Station. It was the first of many actions and skirmishes that would take place on the MGRR line.

Passing through “Mosby’s Confederacy,” Union trains on both the MGRR and the Orange &Alexandria Railroad were frequently attacked by Capt. John S. Mosby’s Partisan Rangers, especially after the U.S. Military Railroad took over all of the existing lines in the region.

The Rangers burned bridges, caused wrecks by loosening rails, and attacked trains with gunfire and cannon. It became necessary for Union relief trains and repair crews to be accompanied by heavily armed troops.

Until the end of the war, Mosby’s Rangers caused the Union Army to deploy thousands of troops to guard the MGRR and O&ARR tracks that were needed elsewhere.

The Second Battle of Manassas on Aug. 28-30, 1862, was preceded by the successful raid on Union stores at Manassas Junction on Aug. 26-27 by B road R un L ifestyle

But in March 1862, they withdrew, and destroyed most of the facilities there to prevent them from being used by the Union. Library of Congress. troops under Col. Isaac Trimble, and the Battle of Thoroughfare Gap. By then, the MGRR no longer played a part, and was described as “… now weed-ridden and disused” by John J. Hennessy in Return to Bull Run (1993). However, the railbed of the unfinished Independent Line played an important role in battle, when Gen. Jackson’s troops used the cuts and fills near Sudley as the focal point of his defensive positions.

According to a report by Gen. Robert E. Lee after the battle, “The troops were disposed in the rear of Groveton along the line of the

On the night of Aug. 26-27, 1862, Confederate troops under Gen. Isaac Trimble raided the Union supply depot at Manassas Junction, taking what they could and destroying what was left.

unfinished branch of the Manassas Gap Railroad, and extended from a point a short distance west of the turnpike, toward Sudley Mill.”

Indeed, the costly fight at the ”Deep Cut” on the unfinished railroad near Schoolhouse Branch was described by Mr. Hennessey as “…one of the war’s most intense musketry battles.” After the Second Battle of Manassas, there were no more epic military engagements in the area, but the MGRR would suffer one final indignation as the war drew to a close.

Tired of fighting over what was left of the MGRR, in 1864 Union work crews pulled up 33 miles of relatively new track from the western end of the line, and brought it back to Alexandria, where it was stored for possible use by the U.S. Military Railroad.

POST-WAR RECOVERY

By the time the Civil War ended in April 1865, both regional railroads were in shambles. But while the O&ARR had a basis to start rebuilding, the MGRR assets – including its tracks, rolling stock and infrastructure – had been virtually destroyed or carried off.

During 1864, Union forces pulled up 33 miles of MGRR rails, and stored them at the railyard in Alexandria for use by the U.S. Military Railroad, as shown in this January 1865 photo. Courtesy of the J. Paul Getty Museum 20

By July 4, 1865, civilian trains were running again on the O&ARR tracks between Manassas and Alexandria, but the MGRR could not obtain financial backing for reconstruction.

Finally, a joint resolution adopted by

John S. Barbour Jr. headed the merged railway companies, including the MGRR and O&ARR, after the Civil War. the Virginia General Assembly on Jan. 31, 1866 authorized “…the transfer of property, charter and franchises of the Manassas Gap Railroad Company and the stock shares in the same to the Orange & Alexandria Railroad Company.”

The two lines became one on Feb. 14, 1867, and renamed the Orange, Alexandria and Manassas Railroad.

Rebuilding of the old MGRR line was to be completed in two years, and included 25 miles of new rail from the original terminus at Mt. Jackson to Harrisonburg.

1916, the Southern was operating on over 8,000 miles of track in 13 states.

Over the next 65 years, the Southern built up its customer base, survived the Great Depression and two World Wars, but faced aggressive competition. In 1982, the Southern Railway was placed under the control of the Norfolk Southern Corp., and in 1990, renamed the Norfolk Southern Railway.

RECALLING THE PAST IN HAYMARKET

Fairfax Harrison served as the president of Southern Railway in the early 1900s, and was instrumental in the growth and improvement of the line. subsidiary. Veteran railroad executive John S. Barbour was put in charge until retiring in 1882.

For the next 12 years, the railroads based in Virginia underwent a series of mergers and acquisitions, culminating in the creation of the Southern Railway in 1894. Fairfax Harrison (1869-1938) became the president of the Southern in 1913, and began making significant changes in the operation, and large investments in infrastructure, including a number of new railway stations on the line. By

In an article published in 1952 reflecting on the 40 years since she had come to Haymarket, Brownie Bass Tulloss Smith commented on train service in the early 20th century: “Buses were unheard of then, and there was only one car in the village for some time, but there was splendid train service – always two passenger trains a day (for a while, three) to Washington, D.C., and two return trains to Harrisonburg, and innumerable freight trains.

“On Saturday and Sunday evenings, just about everyone went to the railroad station; one either had weekend guests, or the people who worked in town came home. I have seen both waiting rooms so packed with people that one could hardly get to the ticket office, and the lot outside filled (with wagons and buggies).

The depot at Haymarket was built in the early 1900s, after the Southern Railway was established and took over the regional railroad lines. A classic design, it served until the 1950s.

For several years, Southern Railways ran excursion trains on the lines in Northern Virginia, much to the enjoyment of railroad enthusiasts who rode them, and the public that had never seen a steam locomotive at work.

Lee Pearson’s family moved to Haymarket in 1942, and in 1948, his parents, Clyde and Ella Pearson, bought the Tyler house off Jefferson Street, behind the Southern Railway depot. He recalled what it was like living near the railroad: “Early in the morning, when I was lying in bed, I could hear the locomotive steam engine whistle.

Sometimes when it was damp, the engine would make a slipping noise on take-off. It sounded like a ‘chuckchuck-chuck,’ and then a faster

I actually liked to hear it, and it was a sound I never heard again.

He added that “There was a cattle pen or corral located about 150 yards west of Jefferson Street by the railroad tracks, on the left.”

Mr. Pearson recalls his experiences riding behind one of the coal-burners.

“A few times my Mom and I took the train to church in Belvoir,” he said. “It was on an old steam locomotive, and smoke and soot came in the windows, making us a pretty sight when we got to church.” By the late 1940s, the Southern Railway began replacing its steam-powered locomotives with diesel-electric engines, and retired its last steam engine in 1953.

Freight service to Haymarket declined to the point that only two trains a day went through town, and they didn’t stop. The depot was closed in the early 1950s, and torn down in 1955. Materials from the old depot were used to build the Pearson house on Fayette Street (See Haymarket Lifestyle, May 2014).

Jimmy O’Brien has lived in an apartment in the Pearson house on

Fayette Street for 47 years, and recalls the last years of regular rail service to Haymarket. He notes that in 1947, Aubrey King, a member of the King family of railroaders, was on the crew of the last passenger train to pass through Haymarket.

Also on board were Robert L. Sinclair of The Plains, then age four, and his older sister Clara. They boarded the train at The Plains, and rode it to the station at Broad Run, where their father met them. “Clara had heard that this would be that last passenger train on the line, and she wanted her baby brother to have something to tell his grandchildren,” recalled Mr. Sinclair. “Although I was very young, I still remember the train ride, the smoke and the ciders in the air …and it precipitated my life-long love of railroading.”

A retired Fauquier County Public Schools educator and administrator, Mr. Sinclair is the president of the Fauquier Heritage and Preservation Foundation in Marshall.

In addition to the railway depot that once stood along the tracks at Thoroughfare (See Haymarket Lifestyle, August 2011), at least one other relic has survived. Mr. O’Brien recalls that the old tool house at Thoroughfare was brought

to Haymarket, where it was used for a while by the railroad. Later, it too was sold to the Pearsons and moved onto their property between Fayette Street and the tracks, and converted to a rental property.

Mr. O’Brien recalls that under Southern Railways President Graham Claytor, steam-powered excursion trains ran on the lines from the late 1970s to the early 1990s. Being a railroad enthusiast, he often took advantage of the opportunity.

Likewise, Mr. Sinclair could relive his earlier experience on the rails when excursion trains took passengers down the line to the annual Fall Festival of Leaves in Front Royal.

Mr. O’Brien notes that in recent years, the number – and length – of the Norfolk Southern freight trains passing through Gainesville and past his home in Haymarket have been increasing, certainly a good sign for the future of the railroad.

Through July 20, the Haymarket Museum on Washington Street is hosting a special exhibit, “Salute to the Railroad.” Hours of operation are Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information, call (703) 753-3712.

A LOOK INTO OUR ANCESTORS DIETS Eat Right & Lose Fat

by Rob ‘Gunny’ Barker

Ever wonder why so many folks who exercise regularly can never seem to lose weight? How many times have you heard someone say, “I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, I’m exercising five times per week, and watching what I eat, but I just can’t seem to lose any weight!”

Unfortunately, and in too many cases like this, people tend to blame their lack of results on their exercise activity, rather than on what they’re eating. I don’t care what type of exercise program you’re doing, whether it be P90X, Cross-Fit, boot camp workouts or a local class at the gym, so long as the workout includes some type of resistance training, you are consistent, and you are training at the proper intensity level. If you’re still not seeing results, then I’m willing to bet you a steak dinner that the issue is not with your workout, it’s with your diet. There actually is a solution, and one that requires absolutely no specialty foods, no expensive meal plans, no crazy gimmicks, no dangerous diet pills, no food limitations, and best of all there is no calorie counting!

Take a step back 2.5 million years and start eating like a caveman!

I’ve been promoting primal eating for years now, and recently, more evidence supporting the benefits of 26

primal, or more commonly known as Paleolithic eating, have started to gain traction and recognition. Take for example the recent article published in the Wall Street Journal, ‘Fat: Redefined’

by Nina Teicholz. In this article, the author cites recent medical studies which prove that saturated fats in red meat, eggs, cheese, and butter are not the cause of heart disease, and how our distrust of saturated fat can be traced back to the 1950’s. Americans faced a fast-growing epidemic; heart disease, a rarity only three decades earlier, had quickly become the nation’s number one killer. When President Dwight D. Eisenhower suffered a heart attack in 1955, researchers became desperate for answers. The U. S. Senate and the American Heart Association supported Dr. Ancel Benjamin Keys’(University of Minnesota) recommended low saturated fat diet for the entire nation. Years later, these studies by Dr. Keys would prove to be inaccurate.

Today we are dealing with the reality of what has come to pass, not only is America the world’s most obese nation, we also spend billions of more dollars than any other on the treatment of obesity related diseases. As a nation we have cut back significantly on fats,

and now eat more carbohydrates, at least 25% more since the 1970’s, while consumption of saturated fats have dropped by at least 11%. Translation: Instead of meat, eggs and cheese, we’re eating more pasta, breads, grains, processed foods, fruit and starchy vegetables (potatoes).

The major problem is that carbohydrates break down into glucose (sugar), which causes the body to release insulin, a hormone that is fantastically efficient at storing fat. Meanwhile, fructose, the main sugar in fruit, causes the liver to generate triglycerides and other lipids in the blood that are altogether bad news.

So why should you consider eating like a caveman? Dr. Boyd Eaton, and Loren Cordain, Ph.D., are considered to be the father and prodigal son of Paleolithic eating; both believe evolutionary forces dictate that we will live healthiest when we consume a diet similar to what early man ate 2.5 million years ago. During the hunter-gather days of the Paleolithic era this diet included more proteins, (healthy) fats and fewer carbohydrates - mainly because Paleo man ate no wheat, rice or corn. These modern grains were not utilized until 10,000 years ago, meaning throughout B road R un L ifestyle

THE PALEO PYRAMID

99.6% of our evolutionary history, we ate no bread, pasta, rice or noodles. As a result, Cordain and Eaton argue that we weren’t adapted to process them healthfully. Further, Cordain has calculated that about 72% of the food consumed by us today was unavailable in Paleo times.

Why is paleo eating simple and so good for you? Well, for the most part, a paleo diet consists of foods which contain only one ingredient, such as lean meats, fowl, eggs, fish, veggies, fruit, seeds and nuts. If a food has more than one ingredient, comes in a package, a box or passed through a window - it is not paleo. Of course there are exceptions, and as Mark Sisson, author of the Primal Blueprint suggests, the 80/20 rule is a good rule to live by. Do your best to eat primal (paleo) foods 80 percent of the time, and you will be amazed at what this change will do for your body composition, energy level and overall health. Best of all, Paleolithic eating is not a diet.

Diets are temporary, paleo eating is a lifestyle. Once you “go paleo” and eliminate processed foods, excess sugars and bad carbohydrates from your diet, chances are you’ll never go back.

Of course, looking good is everyone’s goal, but I tell my clients that losing body fat and unwanted pounds (and keeping it off) is really just a side benefit of adopting a paleo lifestyle, what’s really important is what you can’t see, and those are the healthy changes that are occurring inside your body, specifically to your organs, arteries and to your heart. If you’re interested in learning more about Paleolithic eating, I recommend The Primal Blueprint, by Mark Sisson, and The Paleo Diet for Athletes, by Loren Cordain and Joe Friel.

LIFTING YOUR

Spirits

MARTERELLA WINERY Nestled in the warm hills of Virginia’s Piedmont lies the everwelcoming Marterella. In rain or shine the winery reaches out with open arms, and the vineyards reflect the weather with a haunting beauty. The landscape itself presents an aura of powerful majesty, crowned by this queen of vines.

In stark contrast to the awe-inspiring landscape, the tasting room is small and intimate. You sit in (quite literally) a kitchen, in the heart of the home. Here there is no formal presentation of wine, but a personal and hospitable gift that brings you into the family. The patio outside embraces you like your own backyard- if your own backyard had a glorious view and a brick pizza-oven!

One of the few female winemakers in the state, Kate Marterella is a masterful entertainer. She is queen of her castle, but her warm smile and joyous laugh leave you feeling like you’ve visited an old friend. She built this palace with her husband Jerry, and suffered through exceptional hardship to care for the winery after his passing. Having joined Kate in her passion of winemaking in the hardest of times, Kelley brings the motivation, excitement and hours of hard work that only remarkable friendship can.

This is the secret to Marterella’s culture of hospitality! For an awe-inspiring tale

Oh the Taste of a Local Wine!

of perseverance and dedication, sit with Kate and talk over a glass of her wine.

Speaking of wine, Kate’s artwork is quite notable in northern Virginia. A collection of thirteen beautiful wines grace her list, each one a source of joy and delight. The five whites will refresh and excite you, beginning with an off-dry Vidal Blanc, sprinting to the Pinot Grigio, a tropical Viognier and two flavorful Chardonnays. A Cabernet Franc Rose surprises you with the scent of cinnamon, the taste of cloves and more subtle spices.

As lovely as these wines are, however, they are overshadowed by the glorious reds. The Merlot, while exquisitely light, carries undertones of blackberry jam, vanilla and spices, while the Cabernet Franc brings forth the classic green pepper and vegetable flavor that Virginia does so well. For the truly unconventional, the Sangiovese is imported from Washington State and brings a more floral tone to the grape that once made Italy the center of the world. The crowning glory, however, is the Meritage with a deep earthy nose and ripened dark fruits on the palate, it is truly a Virginia masterpiece.

The family wines finish off with three sweeter varieties. The ‘Sweet Nothings’ Chambourcin begs to be paired with dark chocolate, while the ‘Grace’ blend

of Riesling and Vidal Blanc carries the refreshing flavor of pears. The Portstyled Dessert Wine has been fortified with Brandy and is loaded with dark cherries, chocolate and tobacco. When you visit, do not pass up on the truly unique wine-slushies! With an icy blend of Vidal Blanc and peach bellini or a Pinot Grigio-Cosmo-Rita, there can be nothing more pleasant on a hot day.

All in all, the wines are as exceptional as the winemaker- a true adage for life. There is no food worth eating that cannot find a good pairing with wine made by the lovely Kate Marterella, and there are few places that epitomise the meaning of hospitality as well as Marterella Winery.
