How to unlock the Dead Road achievement in Virginia - Definitive Guide
Now the next time you appear in your apartment will be later on, when you are woken up by someone buzzing on the doorbell/knocking at the door. Go into the main living area and check the small coffee table in front of the sofa - there will be the train from the flyer on it in a box and the achievement will unlock.
Use the chapter select option at the main menu and choose '11. Unwelcome'. This will be late Tuesday. Play through the locket scene in the grassy area. After placing the items in the evidence bag in the office, you will be returned to your home. After the door has been opened, immediately look behind you and pick up the leaflet from the floor.
Now, you will have to play through the rest of the game until Saturday morning. You will be woken by the door buzzer, after dreaming Cord was sat at the end of your bed. Ignore the buzzer. Go into the living area and look at the table. You will see the leaflet you picked up and a box beside it. Focus on the box and the achievement should follow shortly afterward.
This achievement is in two parts. If you miss this in your initial playthough, after you’ve completed the game, reload Chapter 11, ‘Unwelcome’ and play through until the achievement unlocks in Chapter 30, ‘Last Day.’
After dealing with the hooligans at the cave, you will be at your desk collecting evidence. The scene will change to you arriving at your apartment. Sitting on the floor just inside your door is a flyer. Interact with it to pick it up and you will find that it is for ‘On Track!’, an advertisement for a toy train.
Play through the game until you encounter Halperin on a water tower. After that scene, it will now be Saturday. After a short dream, you will wake up in your apartment to the sound of someone buzzing at the door. Walk into the living room and before you answer the door, look to your right (immediately after leaving the bedroom). There will be a sofa and coffee table. Sitting on the table will be a toy train in a box. Look at it and the achievement will unlock.
NOTE: If this is your initial playthrough and you have collected all of the feathers and flowers, “Beatrice,” “Paris,” “Mausoleum,” and “Fever” can be unlocked here as well while you are still in your bedroom.
Missable
After you have bagged some evidence, you will come home. Immediately when entering the apartment, look down. There will be a flyer. Pick it up. At a later point in the story there will be someone buzzing at the door. During this time, take a look at train on the table in your room and the trophy will unlock.
In case you forgot to pick up the flyer and just want to go for this trophy, you'll have to play at least from Chapter 11 (Unwelcome) to Chapter 30 (Last Day).
After receiving the trophy, I came across this video guide on the Internet.
Although my trophy fell out when I looked at the railroad in my bedroom on Saturday, and didn’t even go near the table from the video.
