Cleveland Depot - Cleveland, Mississippi - Mississippi Historical Markers on Waymarking.com

Long Description:


The
Cleveland Depot

Four railroad depots have operated here since Cleveland was incorporated in 1886.  The first depot - two Yazoo & Mississippi Valley RR cars tied together and parked on a side track - disappeared when a prankster hooked it to an outgoing train.  A temporary depot was used until 1896 when a larger, wooden building was constructed.  This depot burned in 1914 but was replaced the following year by the Illinois Central Railroad.  The present structure, renovated in 2003 incorporates a portion of the 1915 depot. ~ text of marker
