About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a delivery driver sorted packages on the porch of James River Station, he noticed something odd. Every envelope addressed to ‘Mr. Postman’ had been mysteriously switched with another one. Was it just a prank, or did someone know too much about our mail? Finally, after hours of confusion and laughter, they discovered that an elderly neighbor had been playing a friendly trick—she simply loved seeing everyone’s reactions when they opened their mailboxes!

2. Early one foggy morning, a postal worker heard strange whispers coming from inside an old crate marked ‘undeliverable’. Curious, he opened it slowly—only to discover a sleepy cat with its paw stuck in a crumpled letter. The cat yawned and stretched, then sauntered out, leaving behind a note scribbled on the envelope: 'Next time, check before you open.'

3. One day, while sorting letters in the dimly lit hallway of James River Station, a mail clerk overheard an old lady muttering, ‘Finally, someone who knows where everything belongs.’ Curious, the clerk followed her voice and found an elderly gentleman painstakingly placing stamps on envelopes. 'You must be new,' he said with a twinkle in his eye. 'Around here, everyone else just drops them wherever.' The old lady smiled warmly, replying, 'Not anymore they don't!'

4. Late one night, a mailman locked himself out of James River Station. As he fumbled with his keys outside, he swore he heard someone whispering his name from within. Finally, he managed to get inside and found an old postcard on the counter with ‘Welcome back!’ scribbled on it. Turned out, it was just a prank by a regular who had left it there earlier. The mailman laughed it off, shook his head, and went home—with the postcard as a souvenir.
