The community’s establishment in the 1850’s coincided with the arrival of the Manassas Gap Rail Road. Logistically speaking, Gainesville was an integral point in the shipping and transport of grain, timber and cattle. Today, Gainesville continues to contribute to the regions growth and stability in this capacity.
