The image of the Virgina state seal is a popular element on many railroad certificates. While some certificates are known from small railroads, the vast majority of Virginia certificates come from major roads including the C&O, N&W, Norfolk Southern, ACL, Seaboard, and other such companies.

An amazon representation of Virtus holds a spear and stands above the vanquished form of Tyranny. Below are the words Sic semper tyrannis (Thus ever to tyrants.)
