 Another potential railroad to enter Highland County was chartered by the Virginia General Assembly on February 29, 1892 as the Augusta, Highland, and Alleghany Railroad.This railroad was to connect with either the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway or Valley Railroad in Augusta County and build a line towards Monterey.The Augusta, Highland, and Alleghany Railroad appears to have never been organized or built, as documents from 1911 and 1922 state that no railroad existed in the county.
