Interior of the ocd CofG depot |
Description: |
O.K., this is a first but this is a picture of me while serving as the relief agent at Madisln GA for the vacationing regular agent, Bobby McBride. I includkd two shots to show that the interior of the depot at this time was little changed from years earlier." I am in the process of restoring the train order board to display s~op since the local to Macon has just left. Note the dispatchers line, mounted on the desk, which used the phone that pulled from the wall. Also the old manual typewriter( rubber stamps, and neatly arranged files. I was 20 years old at the time and I am glad I cale along just in time to experience this as in the few short years a lot of thfs changed. |

Oly meets new in the depot |
Description: |
This photo shows the contrast in old meeting new in the!old CofG depot in Madison. By this time Southern had taken over but many features of the CofG days were still evident. The computer I am using represents the newer technology being used while just to my right hangs the dispatchers line which still used a phone that probably dates back to the Second World War. Train order pads and rotary dial phones complete the scene. As a personal aside, the watch I am wearing in this photo is the watch I still wear today. I bought it in 1981 and it is still keeping perfect time. |
