A vintage photo fothe Depot in the 1920s.
"Located in the Museum is a dispatcher-like ATCS display of train locations along the NS, in real time. The gift shop in the Caboose has model train items, while in the Museum we have tee shirts, books and other items for sale."

I wonder if some other railroads also used Southern's tracks through town and stopped at this depot.
