A recent reddit thread on the triple crossing calls this line "a seldom used spur," if I have my geography right. The Norfolk Southern line from Burkeville to West Point, VA ? If so, it goes right through the intersection of Robious and Huguenot at ground level. With an automobile, it would be an easy chase eastward to the river. Could also look at Google maps for a traffic backup, because that train must do a number on the roads when it passes through. But I'm not the clueless newbie you should consult, people do this stuff at expert level. The subreddit r/trains would be a good place to ask.

The one and only time I've been to West Point, the big paper plant had a line of trucks carrying recyclable paper and cardboard into the plant. It's the longest straight river in the state, and I think the Navy stores old ships there.
