William John Grimes is a photographer living in the state of Virginia. Grimes photographs short-line railroads in Virginia and North Carolina. His photography collection includes railroads such as the Bay Coast Railroad, Buckingham Branch Railroad, Chesapeake and Albemarle Railroad, Commonwealth Railway, Eastern Shore Railroad, Norfolk and Portsmouth Belt Line, North Carolina and Virginia Railroad, and Shenandoah Valley Railroad.

William was born at RAF Upper Heyford in England. He moved to Virginia at an early age, but liked trains both British and American. His father's hobby was photography, so William was encouraged to photograph trains instead of just watching them. In 2003 he started to publish photos on railroad photography websites. In 2006 Genesee and Wyoming Railroad asked to pubish some of his photos of the Commonwealth Railway in a book. The book is scheduled to be relaesed in 2007. In May 2007 the City of Suffolk, Virginia, published four of William's photos in a grade crossing impact saftey report.

William has many hobbies. He plays the harmonica and also enjoys drawing, photography and classic rock. His favorite groups are Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and Queen. William owns and operates an N scale model railroad, though he no longer has an HO scale layout, he still enjoys model trains of all sizes. Although trains are a big part of his hobbies lightships, mainly the Portsmouth, and cargo planes like the C123 Provider has become a subject of intrest. He is also an active member at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Hampton, Virginia. William is also learning how to weld.
