The ex-RF&P from RO (South end of Long Bridge to Richmond) is the RF&P Subdivision.  The CSX line from JD (Hyattsville, MD to RO) is the Alexandria Extension, I'm not sure if that has been renamed as a subdivision.

According to the timetables, the Alexandria Extension is part of the Capital Sub.

Thank you all. Very interesting. I'm from Maryland so my knowledge of the southern routes is somewhat limited.

The RF&P Subdivision was extended from RO to M Street, just north of the Virgina Ave tunnel, some years back.
