Luck Stone Quarry (formerly Trap Rock Quarry). Diabase (traprock), an igneous rock, is the primary product of the quarry. The route of the Washington and Old Dominion (W&OD) Railroad Trail divides the quarry into two parts. Trail users can see much of the south part of the quarry from an overlook near the southwest side of the trail. The Trap Rock Quarry was an important source of freight for the W&OD Railroad, which closed in 1968.
