Southern Trains Depots is about the celebration of an era in American history that was a critical part of the industrialization of this country. The railroad moving west to connect the two coastlines brought the United States to the forefront and made our country the strongest in the world. The railroad connected small towns together and allowed for free trade of local products and agriculture. This site is an attempt to preserve through images these buildings for their operations and design.
