March 2014 Mystery Location

DSCN0171-blurredThis depot is located on a branchline that began in Madisonville and headed west, but never left the state of Kentucky. This line handled passenger trains regularly with baggage, mail and the works, plus considerable freight and lots of coal and farm products since it serviced a big livestock area. The line started in 1882 and then the tracks were removed from the Madisonville area roughly 35 years ago.
