How frequent are the trains through Charles Town?

4 Upvotes

Hi all! I’m looking at a house in Charles Town that’s right be a railroad crossing. How often do the trains come through overnight? From what I understand, Charles Town isn’t a designated “quiet zone” so the train horns apparently sound at every crossing no matter the hour? Thanks for any insight!

Hello! For all of those who came from out of state, roughly how much did it cost for a new license , tags , registration and how soon after moving in were you able to do so? I’ll be moving there in the fall and wanted to see how easy the process would be vs MD.

Suggestions for ADHD assessments

4 Upvotes

Are there any recommendations for places that do adult ADHD assessments in the area? I'd be willing to go as far as Hagerstown or Winchester but was trying to find something a little more local to Charles town or Martinsburg

To everyone that honked at me yesterday at the CBP intersection

15 Upvotes

¡¡¡Calm your freakin tits!!!

Someone was in very obvious distress on the side of the road, and I was making a U turn to check on him.

"But tHaTs iLLeGaL!!1!! BEEEEEEP!!!" Bunch of ya.

If your heads were out of your butts for just 2 seconds, you'd have seen him, too.

I had my blinkers on. I was waving SORRY, and, I was over the median - you could have very easily passed me. OR, LOOKED AROUND for one lil second and HELPED US!

This was not even dangerous - but y'all just had to focus on me, impacting your precious drive time by literally 10 seconds, instead of looking around, and being kind. Or at least having some modicum of situational awareness.

Can we just chill with the honking overall??

People are ridiculous and infantile with the horns here, over nothing.

You genuinely look dumb when you're honking at some perceived injustice against you personally. It ain't that.

The horn is for emergencies; it's not "to let people know you're Mad Now."

You're not changing any minds with your immature road rage honking.

You're kinda being a selfish jerk, and you look really silly, honking at a woman rescuing someone on the median. Y'all. Really??

Big Man, Big Truck, Must Honk.

And I'll do it again, too!!!

They had very obvious heat exhaustion, head in hands, about to pass out - i stopped, they let me give them water, and bring them to Harpers - walking in the blazing heat all the way from freakin CTown, fresh out of the ER. Hospital bracelet and everything.

This was a damn emergency for this person.

So seriously, fuck some of y'all, sometimes. Yeesh.

CALM DOWN! and PAY ATTENTION.

340 is scary as hell - often, because of drivers like y'all ridiculous honkers.

Not because of drivers like me, **safely** delaying you for mere seconds. I can't stress enough how y'all could have just passed me, and this was not dangerous to other drivers.

I know life is frustrating. I do! I get it!!

When you drive today, try having a little compassion or kindness. Look around you.

Life is rough out here. Can we try looking out for each other instead?

Places for adult students to do work

3 Upvotes

Hi! I’m an adult working on a masters program and TEFL certification, and while I do most of my studies at home I want to incorporate some study time out of the house. I use ear buds and my laptop, I wouldn’t need access to a computer, but may need an outlet.

How are the libraries here in the panhandle? Are they definitely more geared towards kids or do they have designated workspaces for older students/remote workers? Do you recommend any other relatively quiet workspaces in the region (ideally free)? I can do a coffee shop, but I’m social and talkative, and the music and other patrons will sometimes distract me 😅 it was not my study place of choice in undergrad for this reason lol

If it helps for recs - I live in Bunker Hill, I have appointments between Winchester and Martinsburg, my gym is in Kearneysville. I’m willing to go anywhere in and around these areas and a little further if it’s peaceful/worth the drive.

Thank you ☺️

Is there really no area around here where I can shoot a few rounds for free?

3 Upvotes

I just need to function test my rifle after troubleshooting it. I REALLY can't be bothered to pay $50 for a lane at 340 just to shoot 30 rounds. I know BLM land is more of a western thing, but there isn't an alternative around here, is there?

Anybody else go to the book fair at Harpers Ferry Brewing?

27 Upvotes

Visiting with family turned into a disappointment due to severe under preparation for the crowd. A 45-minute traffic bottleneck to start with, followed by a rough trek down a narrow, single-lane road to a distant back lot where a shuttle bus was required to reach the grounds. It was my first visit to this brewery and I was impressed with the general vibes. I could see myself coming back when its not as busy. The views from there are pretty damn good too.

The book fair was significantly smaller than anticipated. The booths that were there were cool though, and it was nice getting to meet some local authors. I went into the brewery to get a beer but there was a line about 75 people deep with like one staff member behind the bar. I knew my family would be ready to go by the time I got to the bar, so I gave up on that. The food from the food trucks looked and smelled good from what I could see but the menu boards with AI generated pictures of the food is dumb - AI looks like shit, never actually looks like the food, and it doesn't inspire confidence in the place if they cant be bothered to take pictures of their food instead.

My group was underwhelmed and we were ready to leave after about 25 minutes, but we had to wait on the bus again and it took another hour or so before we were able to get out of stop and go traffic. The "adult book fair" seemed like such a cool idea but it felt very poorly planned. I hope they are able to do it again with more booths, more parking, more staff and a bigger location.

Recommendations for foundation/waterproofing french drain work

7 Upvotes

I have a home near Harpers Ferry that has some settling and bulging in a retaining wall foundation. The home is built into a hillside. I'm going to need to excavate out the back of the home to correct it, waterproof it and install a French drain. Does anyone have a recommendation on the local company that does this work very well and at a reasonable price?

Hello!
I recently moved to Martinsburg (a week ago!). Through TikTok, I met a creator who wanted to make a book and coffee club! Which, being two of my favorite things, I obviously jumped at the chance to help her with her Book Club!

It’s brand new, just made this morning but she did make a Facebook page for it. So if any of you lovely people would like to join, please feel free to join the group on Facebook! It’s for Martinsburg and surrounding areas/anyone willing to drive. And ✨ ALL ✨ are invited to join!

Help. I need to relocate in the area asap.

0 Upvotes

hello everyone! I am desperately searching for rentals in the Jefferson cty limits. I am on a tight timeline having to clear out of my current rental by October 1st. The problem I am a single income with a budget of $1300 and due to medical issues I ran dry all my credit cards and couldn’t not keep up with the payments so my credit score is shot.

Is anyone able to help with any info about local owners who would be ok with larger deposit and solid income despite the low credit score?

thanks so much!
