Bryan Smith	General	Is that an old depot?? I didn't think so at first glance but there are aspects of the building that could indicate an old depot mostly the way it hugs the tracks.	2/27/2011 6:06:48 AM

Jimmie Fisher	General	An old used car lot office. The building was renovated (rebuilt) a couple of years ago. The restored and now town-owned Southern depot is on the other (east) end of town about 6/10 of a mile away.	2/27/2011 8:08:21 AM
