Millington, Tennessee Train Depot



Millington 1955 Depot – Thanks Cliff Downey for sharing - Look carefully and there is a lot to see...the double track mainline with "stick rail"...the newly installed crossing gate...the paint peeling off the side of the depot...the train order semaphores...an unknown passenger train fading into the distance...a string of wooden "camp cars" parked beyond the depot....Perry's Garage behind the depot...telegraph and electric poles leaning in different angles. Although it may be tough to see in the scan, there is a sign on the side of the depot reading "Bicycle Riding Prohibited on Platform", which was common at many depots. Chris Thompson collection.
