VA 392 #1: Appeared in Oct 1923 (CTB) as a renumbering of VA 9 SPUR running from VA 39 (now just Richmond Rd) Williamsburg south via today's Jamestown Rd, Mill Neck Rd (no longer connects to), SR 617, SR 618, SR 682, west along today's Colonial Pkwy, then cut south at the parking area to a causeway (still visible on Google Earth) and crossed Thoroughfare Creek onto Jamestown Island to meet the ferry in the area of the historic settlement.

In mid-1926, a separate piece of VA 392 was assigned to what had been put into the system as VA 351 from Dendron through Wakefield to its SCL (current SR 628-620 jct). This piece was not connected to any other part of the highway system.
In 1925 (per Wikipedia), the ferry from Jamestown to Scotland was established as a private enterprise. The Jamestown wharf was on Jamestown Island at that time.
About 1927, VA 392 was rerouted to use today's VA 5 and 31 directly to SR 682.
In March 1927 (CTB), VA 392 was extended from Dendron to VA 10 Surry C.H.
In March 1928 (CTB), a permit was granted to Eastern Virginia Bridge Company to build a toll bridge between Scotland Wharf and Jamestown Island.
In Aug 1928, both pieces of VA 392 were renumbered as VA 510. Today the southern piece is VA 31 and a liitle SR 628.

VA 392 #2: The Southwest Virginia Training Center opened in 1976. VA 392 was assigned to the access road which looped around to itself (Harrison Cir). SVTC closed in August 2018 and the property was eventually sold to private developers. VA 392 was decommissioned by the CTB in July 2022.
There were TO VA 392 shields in both directions on nearby US 58-221 back to at least 1993. The access road itself was posted from SR 707.
