Freight Train 100k/50k

December 6th 2025
Farmville, VA
50 KM | 100 KM

The Freight Train 50k/100k is a companion race to the summertime Night Train 50k. It takes place on the same trail. The course features a Half Marathon, a 50k and 100k option. It is a relatively flat rail trail. There is a slight incline in each direction as you leave the starting line. Total elevation gain is less than 1500 feet for the 100k. If the weather cooperates, this should be a fast course. The race begins at 7:30am and ends at 1:30am on the 11th. There is an 18 hour time limit for the 100k. The only time limit for 50k runners is that they have to finish before the 18 hours cutoff for the 100k runners. This makes it a great first time Ultra! All runners will pass over the famed “High Bridge” twice during their run.
