Mosby led on St. Patrick's day in March 1863.[10] Mosby and his men surprised the Union Army picket guarding the station and captured officers, soldiers and horses with no Confederate casualties.[10] The railroad was an integral part of Herndon's agricultural history as large dairy farms surrounded the village.[8][11] Farmers would ship milk on the railroad daily to Washington for processing and distribution.[8] The railroad station became a center of the community.[8] Businesses sprang up around the station, attracted by the ready access to transportation.[8] With the advent of cars, trucks and better roads, the railroad became less of a necessity for Herndon farmers and residents.[8] The last major assignment for the railway was hauling sand to be used in the concrete mix for runways at Washington Dulles International Airport.[8] The railroad and the depot closed in August 1968.[8] The depot building is a rectangular, one-story wooden vertical board and batten structure, measuring {{convert|70.5|x|20.1|ft}}.[4] Victorian style buttresses under the eaves are the building's only decorative feature.[4] The window and door framings and the two baggage doors are original, as are the semaphore and several pieces of hardware.[4] The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[4][12] Its site is marked as part of the Virginia Civil War Trails program.[10][13] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Virginia Landmarks Register|url=http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/register_counties_cities.htm|publisher=Virginia Department of Historic Resources|accessdate=5 June 2013}} 2. ^{{NRISref|version=2010a}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.herndon-va.gov/Content/AboutHerndon/History.aspx?cnlid=21 |title=Herndon's History |work=About Herndon |location=Herndon, VA |publisher=The Town of Herndon |year=2010 |accessdate=2010-07-28 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101101123356/http://herndon-va.gov/Content/AboutHerndon/History.aspx?cnlid=21 |archivedate=2010-11-01 |df= }} 4. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|last=David|first=Elizabeth S., Historic Preservation Planner, Fairfax County Office of Comprehensive Planning|url=http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Fairfax/235-0001_Herndon_Depot_Nomination.pdf|title=Herndon Depot|work=National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form|publisher=National Park Service|date=April 1979|accessdate=2010-07-23}} 5. ^{{cite book|last=Harwood|first=Herbert Hawley, Jr.|title = Rails to the Blue Ridge: The Washington and Old Dominion Railroad, 1847–1968|publisher=Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority|year=2000|isbn=0-615-11453-9}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.herndonhistoricalsociety.org/|title=Herndon Historical Society|location=Herndon, Virginia|publisher=Herndon Historical Society|accessdate=2010-07-23}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl|title=Google Maps|accessdate=2010-07-26}} 8. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {{cite web|url=https://www.herndon-va.gov/Content/AboutHerndon/walkingtour2010.pdf?cnlid=3423 |title=Self-Guided Walking Tour of Historic Downtown Herndon Virginia |location=Herndon, VA |publisher=The Town of Herndon and Herndon Dulles Visitor's Center |date=January 2010 |accessdate=2010-07-26 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101123150721/http://herndon-va.gov/Content/AboutHerndon/walkingtour2010.pdf?cnlid=3423 |archivedate=2010-11-23 |df= }} 9. ^{{cite web|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090919104021/http://www.placesdiscovered.com/2009/07/herndon-depot-museum-herndon-va|archivedate=2009-09-19|url=http://www.placesdiscovered.com/2009/07/herndon-depot-museum-herndon-va/|date=2009-07-14|title=Herndon Depot Museum: Herndon, VA|website= PlacesDiscovered.com|accessdate=2010-10-04}} Website contains a video that shows the interior and exterior of the depot museum. 10. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?MarkerID=151|title=Mosby’s Herndon Station Raid Marker|work=Virginia Civil War Trails Markers series|publisher=The Historical Marker Database|date=March 10, 2006|accessdate=26 Jul 2010}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?MarkerID=152|title=Herndon Station Marker|work=Washington and Old Dominion Railroad Markers series|publisher= HMdb.org: The Historical Marker Database|date=March 10, 2006|accessdate=26 Jul 2010}} 12. ^(1) {{cite journal|last=Greenberg|first=Ronald M., Acting Chief, National Register of Historic Places|url=http://www.nps.gov/nr/listings/Weekly_List_FR-Tuesday-March-18-1980-listingyear1979.pdf|title=Department of the Interior: Heritage Conservation and Recreation Service: National Register of Historic Places;
