"Thomasville has preserved one of Georgia's most impressive train stations, the former Atlantic Coast Line depot constructed south of downtown in 1916. The city was at the junction of two important ACL lines, an east-west line from Montgomery to Savannah and a north-south connection from Albany to Florida."

The red brick depot is of the Mission/Spanish Revival architectural style and was designed and constructed by W.H. Little and W.C. Phillips. It is constructed of concrete, brick, tin, and terra cotta. The historic depot is now used for retail office space and houses a restaurant.
