This is the old station sat on trackage running from Gracey, KY to Clarksville, TN. The station was finally torn down early this year.
The initial railroad was the Indiana, Alabama and Texas Railroad and later the L&N. The line was built in the 1850’s and abandoned in 1934.

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.
