Glade Spring , Virginia is a town of Virginia in the United States .
During its first years , the town was called Glade Spring Depot to differentiate it from the community centered around Glade Spring Presbyterian Church , two miles to the southwest on the old stage road , now U.S. Route 11 . The post office was moved from Old Glade to Glade Spring Depot in 1856 due to the arrival of the railroad .
